🛠️ Survival Guide for Your Echeveria Elegans ‘Alba’
☀️ Light
This beauty thrives in bright, indirect sunlight. Place it near a sunny window to encourage its rosette to remain compact and vibrant. Direct sunlight for a few hours daily is ideal but avoid harsh afternoon rays.
💧 Water
Water sparingly—only when the soil is completely dry. Typically, every 2–3 weeks during spring and summer. Reduce watering in winter to once every 4 weeks to prevent root rot.
🪴 Soil
Use a well-draining cactus or succulent soil mix. Ensure your pot has drainage holes to prevent water buildup.
🌡️ Temperature & Humidity
It prefers warm temperatures between 18–26°C. Keep it away from cold drafts and frost.
🌼 Fertilizer
During its active growth (spring and summer), feed it with a diluted succulent fertilizer once a month. No need to fertilize in fall or winter.
🪴 Pot Styling Tip
Pair it with a pastel or neutral-colored pot to complement its soft hues, or go bold with a bright pot for contrast!
🐈⬛ Pet-Friendly Note
This plant is non-toxic to pets, but ingestion might cause mild stomach upset. Keep curious cats and dogs at bay!
