Description: Sun/Location: Echeveria Sweet Orange maintenance can be referred to Echeveria Agavoides series with similar growth habits. The indoor succulent prefers full sun to partial shade to develop its pronounced shape and color. It is appropriate to grow outdoors to absorb the scattered light for at least 6 hours during the growing period in spring and autumn. Echeveria Sweet Orange would develop succulent trees and cluster when exposed to abundant sunshine and grown under significant temperature differences. Remove Echeveria Sweet Orange indoors to shade in the heatwave and supply artificial light to defend against the severe cold in winter. Soil/Pot: It is recommendable to plant it in a slightly taller but not particularly tall pot, which is conducive to Echeveria Sweet Orange growth and adds aesthetic value. Add a top dressing and charcoal to encourage good drainage on the planter pot. Echeveria Sweet Orange hates soggy soil and requires sitting in the porous and ventilated succulent soil with gritty materials such as perlite or pumice, evaporating the moisture smoothly to avoid rot roots. Repot in warm spring to upgrade the growth environment, and trim the roots and wrinkled blades at the bottom to help Echeveria Sweet Orange regenerates healthier. Watering: Echeveria sweet orange requires infrequent watering since it is drought tolerant. Abundant water was stored in the plump and lush leaves, reducing watering demand. Stick your finger in the potting soil to test whether it is bone dry. The soak-and-dry method is generally applied when the potting soil is dry out. The immersive watering method is also recommendable if placed in a ventilated and breathable location. Be careful to water along the edge of the pot to the potting soil instead of the rosette and foliage, preventing waterlogging, bacteria, and fungal diseases. Propagation: Echeveria sweet orange is prone to generate a lot of little side buds, which can be placed in a ventilated place when grown well. The leaf propagation is taking the flesh leaf, putting it in the shade to dry the wound, and then placing it on the slightly wet soil. It will slowly grow roots and germinate. Humidity: Keeping the air humidity at 40%-60% is an ideal environment for the growth of succulent plants. Echeveria Sweet orange prefers a cool climate, avoiding a sultry and humid environment. Pay attention to shelter in the rainy seasons. Pest Control: It would not be well-ventilated indoors in winter with insufficient sunshine, resulting in succulents being prone to get sick from the pests. The temperature rises in spring, which is conducive to pest hatching. Therefore, when the temperature is significantly warmer, some particulate pesticides should be embedded in the soil. Isolate the plants with bugs from other healthy plants to prevent the spread of pests when affected. Disinfect the new potting soil at a high temperature when repotting, which kills the eggs and insect pests efficiently.
