Echeveria 'Blue Curls' is a captivating succulent that demands attention with its mesmerizing blue-green foliage that undulates in delicate waves, creating a soothing and relaxing aura in any setting. The powdery texture of the leaves gives them a frosted appearance, while the pink blush in spring and fall adds a touch of warmth to the plant. In summer, the plant produces reddish-pink flowers on tall stalks, adding a pop of color to the already captivating rosette that can grow up to 30 cm in diameter.
Caring for Echeveria 'Blue Curls' is relatively easy, as with most Echeveria species. The plant thrives in well-draining soil and requires watering only when the soil has completely dried out. It's crucial to avoid getting water in the rosette, as this can cause rot and damage the plant. Regularly removing dead leaves can prevent pest infestations and keep the plant looking healthy.
Propagation of 'Blue Curls' is possible through various means, including leaf cuttings and stem cuttings. Repotting can be done as needed during the growing season, and the plant requires a sunny location to thrive.
This hybrid succulent is the creation of Frank Reinelt, who used Echeveria gibbiflora as the parent plant. The plant's origins and naming are somewhat confusing, as it is also known as Echeveria 'Curls' and has a sister plant Echeveria Blue Waves, which has caused some confusion in Europe where the names are used inversely. But it is undeniable that Echeveria 'Blue Curls' is a stunning addition to any collection or garden, bringing a sense of calm and tranquility with its unique blue-green foliage and mesmerizing curls.
