Echeveria Purple Afterglow

Echeveria ‘Purple Afterglow’ is a breathtaking hybrid succulent known for its large, powdery rosettes in radiant shades of lavender, violet, and pink. Each broad leaf has a soft pastel coating and often features a bright pink margin that intensifies in full sun. This variety brings a luminous, almost ethereal quality to any garden or indoor space, making it a favorite among collectors and landscape designers alike.

Main Features:

• Large rosettes up to 30 cm wide with powdery lavender-purple leaves

• Striking pink edges that glow in sunlight

• Covered in a fine layer of natural farina (epicuticular wax) for a soft, pastel finish

• Tall bloom stalks may appear in summer with coral-orange flowers

• Excellent focal point in succulent arrangements or as a stand-alone display

Care Tips:

• Light: Needs bright light to full sun to develop its best color. Indoors, place near a sunny window.

• Water: Water deeply when soil is dry. Avoid getting water in the center of the rosette.

• Soil: Use a well-draining cactus or succulent mix.

• Temperature: Prefers warm conditions and must be protected from frost.

• Fertilizer: Feed sparingly during spring and summer with diluted succulent fertilizer.

• Maintenance: Wipe off dust gently to maintain its waxy glow. Remove any dried lower leaves.
