Highlights
Graptosedum 'Blue Giant': An intergeneric hybrid of Graptopetalum x Echeveria with a striking blue tone. It grows long, thick stems that bend and sprawl as they develop. Exposure to bright sun can cause a peachy blush at the leaf tips. The foliage has a powdery coating of epicuticular wax (farina). It can send up a tall bloom stalk of numerous tiny, yellow flowers.
Soft succulents will not survive a hard frost, but if there is a risk of freezing temperatures they can be brought indoors to grow on a sunny window sill or under a grow light. They need bright sunlight, good drainage, and infrequent water to prevent rot. Pick containers with drainage holes and use well-draining cactus and succulent soil with 50% to 70% mineral grit such as coarse sand, pumice, or perlite. Water deeply enough for water to run out the drainage hole, then wait for the soil to fully dry before watering again.
This variety is easy to re-root from stem cuttings. Look to our Succulent Cuttings Guide for tips on succulent propagation.
