5ft to light, indirect
7” pot with drainage
Last watered 10 months ago
Just realized you can’t tell how big she is in those photos! She is about 6” across right now 🩷
What a big succ!! She's so pretty! How big was she when you got her?
@LittleSongbird she was actually even bigger when I got her! Probably 7 or 8”! But I’ve noticed when I put new echeverias under these lights, along with the older leaves shedding, all the new growth comes in more compact than it was… wondering if that means it’s TOO bright?! But all the new growth looks healthy so 🤷🏻‍♀️ idk lol
@LittleSongbird which is actually crazy because as you can see, my opalina up in the top right got etiolated under the same light lol. Can’t make that one happy! Once I have the space I’m going to put the opalina in the window and see if she likes that…
@BabeVila I think it should be fine! The stress colors are so beautiful. And my goodness, you just cannot make an opalina happy! I had one... once... 😬
Nice color! Congrats on that bloom stalk popping out!
Awesome echeveria!
@LittleSongbird haha that makes me feel a little better! This is my second opalina. My first one 😵 and I still don’t know why lol. So as long as this one lives, I’ll consider it a win!
@BabeVila You are certainly doing better than I could!!
Wow!! Congratulations, 👏🏾she is beautiful and huge!! What’s the secret?! What are you feeding her!? 🤩
Wow!! All of your Succulents are showcases beautiful!!!
@SweetAzurebluet haha no secret—she was enormous when I bought her! Her new growth is actually coming in more compact so she is getting a bit smaller lol. I think it’s from my bright lights. Nice to see you on here, I’ve been so busy I haven’t been to #brunchataudreys lately! 🩷
@BabeVila yeah, we all are busy, somehow or another. But, that’s life. Post when you can, we will be here for you. 😉🥰
