The correct care method for the Echeveria 'Suyon' succulent: master these few points and that is enough
Echeveria 'Suyon' is a succulent variety that suddenly became popular in recent years. It belongs to the Crassulaceae family, Echeveria genus. Its leaves are obovate-spatulate in shape, with deep red leaf tips, and the overall form is a rosette. When the growing environment is suitable, its leaves take on a carmine color, very delicate and beautiful. So how should the Echeveria 'Suyon' succulent be cared for? Let's take a look.
1. Sufficient light
The leaves of the Echeveria 'Suyon' succulent are red and have high ornamental value, and this is based on the condition of sufficient light. If the Echeveria 'Suyon' succulent lacks light, its leaves will turn green, greatly reducing its ornamental value. So to ensure its ornamental value, in spring, summer and autumn it should be placed in a place with sufficient light for care. Summer sunlight is strong, and long periods of exposure may cause its leaves to burn, so appropriate shading and sun protection are needed; generally about 4 hours of light in the morning and evening is enough.
2. Soil quality
The Echeveria 'Suyon' succulent has certain requirements when it comes to choosing soil. All succulents share a common trait: sandy loam soil with good air permeability and good drainage is most suitable for cultivation. If the soil is sticky and heavy with poor air permeability, it is very easy for water to accumulate and cause root rot during care, resulting in plant death. In addition, before planting and potting, it is recommended to use high temperature to fully disinfect and sterilize the soil and flower pot once, to ensure the soil is clean and sanitary and avoid infection by pathogens.
3. Fertilizer and water irrigation
Somewhat different from other succulents, the Echeveria 'Suyon' succulent can be given a little more water during the growing season, but the amount and frequency of watering should still be controlled, to avoid the plant becoming leggy or water accumulating and causing root rot. During the growing season, fertilize generally once a month. In addition to paying attention to the concentration of the fertilizer, during fertilization also be careful to avoid splashing the fertilizer liquid onto the leaves, so the leaves are not burned and the ornamental value is not affected.
4. Ensure ventilation
Many friends often overlook the issue of ventilation. Good ventilation conditions can effectively block the invasion of pathogens and pests on the plant, and can stabilize the suitable temperature range within the growing environment, avoiding the phenomenon of the plant body softening caused by excessive temperature differences. A high-quality ventilation environment can allow the Echeveria 'Suyon' succulent to enhance its respiration and photosynthesis, letting it grow better and making the leaf color more vivid.
