Highlights
Pachyveria 'Curtis': A chunky-leaved rosette of powder blue. This pretty, pastel succulent is of unknown origin, but she's a beauty nonetheless. A thick coating of powdery wax (farina) gives the plant a matte finish and helps it tolerate full sun. It can send up a robust bloom stalk that bends under the weight of large, pale 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 ample 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 and leaves. Look to our Succulent Cuttings Guide for tips on succulent propagation.
