Succulents - Pachyveria
Pachyveria are hybrids between the genera Pachyphytum and Echeveria
(most hybrids are between species in the same genus).

Pachyveria ‘Blue Haze’ – rounded

Pachyveria ‘Claire’ – rosette

Propagation: Pachyveria can have characteristics
of either parent, and some are sterile and can only be propagated
vegetatively, not from seed.
Growing Tips: Succulent plants require a very
quickly draining soil, either with extra drainage material such
as sand with all dust and small particles sieved out or one specially
developed for cacti and succulent plants. Also beneficial is a mulch
of small stones or gravel to assist in drainage around the base
of the plant. Water thoroughly only when the soil is quite dry and
avoid watering altogether in cooler weather and winter. Use fertilizer
sparingly while plants are actively growing. We suggest planting
succulent plants in a clay pot, partly for their good drainage,
and also to prevent large heavy plants from tipping over while drying
out as recommended between waterings.
Pricing
Price for all succulent plants is $5.00 per plant in 2” pots.
A collection of 9 plants is $42.00, a saving of $3.00 over the regular
price. If you buy more than one collection at the same time, I'll
try not to duplicate the selection of plants.
