Echeveria 'Tippy' (Yudie)
Complete Guide to Flower Growing
For many people, the first succulent they buy is Echeveria 'Tippy', because it looks so beautiful, easily forms clusters, and before you know it you have a big pot of it, which feels very rewarding to grow.
Soil
: Echeveria 'Tippy' is not fussy about soil and has no special requirements; it can survive in any kind of soil. A 1:1 mix of garden soil and river sand works fine.
Light
: Echeveria 'Tippy' has a strong tendency to grow toward light. With sufficient light, the leaves will thicken and turn blue, and the number of layers will increase; with insufficient light, it will grow more loosely. Full sun is recommended, and if conditions allow, grow it outdoors. In summer, be careful to provide shade.Watering
: Generally, watering once a week is enough. When watering, do not get water on the leaves; the leaves have a powdery coating, and water will wash it off, making the leaves prone to sunburn and turning to mush.
