Pachyveria Rosy Crow
The plant prefers a sunny location. During the warmer months, it can be moved outdoors to a sunny spot and brought back indoors before winter.
Water only a few days after the substrate has completely dried out. Reduce watering during winter.
It can briefly tolerate temperatures down to -1.1 °C, but it is not frost hardy.
For the richest pink colouring, provide plenty of light and slightly cooler nights.
Pachyveria Rosy Crow is an attractive hybrid between Pachyphytum and Echeveria. It combines compact growth, heavily glaucous leaves, and beautiful pastel colours, making it a popular hybrid succulent.
The plant forms symmetrical rosettes of thick, fleshy leaves covered with a fine waxy coating. The leaves are bluish-green to grey-green and develop soft pink to lavender tones in bright light or during cooler weather, giving the cultivar its distinctive name. The rosettes remain compact and gradually produce offsets.
In spring or early summer, slender flower stalks emerge bearing small bell-shaped flowers in shades of orange to coral pink. The blooms provide a striking contrast to the powdery foliage and remain attractive for several weeks.
Pachyveria Rosy Crow thrives in a very bright location, ideally with several hours of direct sunlight each day. It requires a well-draining substrate and moderate watering, allowing the soil to dry completely between waterings. Its easy care, compact growth, and delicate pastel colours make it an excellent choice for any succulent enthusiast.
