Echeveria ‘Arctic Ice’

Echeveria ‘Arctic Ice’

Family

Crassulaceae

Origin

Mexico

Description  

Echeveria ‘Arctic Ice’ produces concentric, “snowball”-style rosettes of chunky, fleshy, lightly colored leaves. Its luminous white foliage is liable to throw off soft undertones of icy blue or soft, light purple, depending on factors such as lighting. Flowers hang from gracefully arching stalks in later winter to spring.

Environment

Full sun to filtered shade. Average Water Needs; Water regularly; do not over water. 

As with all succulents, the most dangerous situation is too much water- they should never be allowed to sit in water under any circumstances.

These decorative little plants can be grown in interesting containers such as tea cups and even miniature baby shoes. Make sure the container had adequate drainage. If it doesn’t, it might be a good idea to pop the plant out of its container and add a layer of gravel to the bottom to reduce the wicking action of the soil above.

Landscape Use 

Suitable for Container, Rock Garden & Xeriscaping
