Graptoveria Mrs Richards Variegata commonly called Gypsy is the variegated form of the regular Graptoveria.Mrs Richards first created by Albert Baynes of Shipley Yorkshire UK. It is a beautiful hybrid of Graptopetalum paraguayense crossed with an unknown Echeveria.
It has a stunning silk variegation in predominantly pink tones contrasting with hues of blue, green, red, purple and lilac depending on the season and growing conditions. It has plump rosettes of large open leaves and will offset quite freely from the base of the plant after only a few months of growth.
Due to its large fleshy leaves that store up a lot of water this plant requires infrequent watering. Care should be taken not to over water as it can be prone to rot if kept too wet particularly over winter. A good rule of thumb is to wait for the lower leaves to go quite soft before watering and water from below rather than overhead.
Will grow well in full sun to part shade and should be fertilized more than your regular succulents to keep vibrant and healthy. We like to give ours a well balanced liquid feed once per month during the growing season. They are quite stocky plants and provided you give them ample light you shouldn’t have any problems with elongation
