Echeveria Prolifera - Cutting

Echeveria 'Prolifera', also known as the Mother of Thousands or Hen and Chicks, is a charming succulent native to Mexico. This unique plant is beloved for its prolific offsets, forming dense clusters of rosettes that resemble a mother hen surrounded by her chicks.

Appearance:

• Leaves: Small, plump, and tightly packed leaves form individual rosettes. The leaves are typically a pale green to bluish-green color, often with a delicate pink or reddish blush at the tips, especially when exposed to ample sunlight.

• Size: Each individual rosette is relatively small, typically growing to about 2-3 inches in diameter. However, the plant as a whole can spread significantly as it produces numerous offsets, creating a sprawling mat of rosettes.

Growth Habits and Care:

• Sunlight: Thrives in bright, indirect light or partial shade. Ample sunlight exposure helps to intensify the pink coloration of the leaves.

• Soil: Requires well-draining soil, such as a cactus or succulent mix.

• Watering: Water thoroughly when the soil is dry, allowing it to dry out completely between waterings. Reduce watering in winter.

Additional Information:

• Echeveria 'Prolifera' is a fast-growing succulent, quickly producing numerous offsets that can be easily propagated to create new plants.

• It is a popular addition to rock gardens, succulent arrangements, or as a ground cover in sunny locations.

• The cascading clusters of rosettes create a visually appealing and textured display, adding interest to any garden or container.
