Echeveria 'Blue Metal' — A Striking Blend of Color and Texture
Echeveria 'Blue Metal' is a stunning succulent from the Crassulaceae family, celebrated for its bold foliage, metallic sheen, and refined rosette form. With its unique color shifts and sculptural leaves, this variety makes a dramatic addition to any succulent display.
Distinctive Features:
-
Color & Texture: Thick, spoon-shaped leaves form tight rosettes in a rich blend of bluish-gray, green, and steel-blue tones. The foliage often has a smooth, metallic finish that gives the plant its signature name. In bright light, the outer leaf edges can develop a velvety maroon hue, offering beautiful contrast and depth.
-
Growth Habit: Rosettes typically reach about 4–6 inches (10–15 cm) in diameter, though mature specimens may grow larger, up to 25 cm across.
-
Seasonal Variation: Leaf color may intensify or shift slightly depending on sunlight, temperature, and growing conditions, making each plant subtly unique.
Care Requirements:
-
Light: Prefers full sun to partial shade. In hotter climates, morning sun and afternoon shade help prevent scorching.
-
Soil: Requires a well-draining cactus or succulent mix.
-
Watering: Drought-tolerant; water thoroughly when the soil is completely dry. Avoid letting water sit in the rosette.
-
Temperature: Best grown in warm conditions and should be protected from frost.
Design Ideas:
Echeveria 'Blue Metal' is an eye-catching choice for rock gardens, succulent arrangements, decorative containers, and even floral centerpieces. Its bold coloration and structured form make it a standout specimen on its own or a striking complement to softer-toned succulents.
The first photos serves a display purpose only. The succulent plant housed in the red pot comes in a 130mm diameter container. While the image provides a representative depiction of what you will receive, but may vary slightly because no two succulents are the same.
