Echeveria purpusorum – Textured Rosette Beauty 🌵🖤

Echeveria purpusorum is a unique, slow-growing succulent with thick, pointed leaves marked by mottled dark green, chocolate, or reddish tones. Unlike many paler echeverias, this one features a dense, low-growing rosette with leathery, patterned foliage that gives it a tough, sculptural edge. A great choice for collectors or anyone wanting a more textured, earthy look in their succulent mix.

Key Features:

✔ Compact rosette with mottled, leathery leaves
✔ Leaf tones range from olive green to rusty brown-red depending on light
✔ Rare among echeverias for its tough leaf texture and slower growth
✔ Excellent for succulent bowls, window sills, or small pots
✔ May produce a tall flower stalk with reddish-orange blooms

Care Instructions:

• Light: Thrives in bright, direct light – full sun brings out best colours

• Watering: Water deeply only when soil is completely dry – every 10–21 days

• Soil: Use a gritty, free-draining cactus or succulent mix

• Humidity: Prefers dry air – avoid excess moisture or misting

• Feeding: Fertilise lightly in spring/summer with a diluted cactus feed

• Temperature: Ideal range is 18–26°C – protect from frost

• Growth: Slow grower – rarely needs repotting

🌿 Tip: Avoid letting water sit in the centre of the rosette to prevent rot. Ideal for sunny indoor spots or sheltered outdoor displays in summer.
