The Pink Witch succulent, also known as Echeveria "Pink Witch," is a stunning plant with beautiful pink leaves and a rosette shape. This succulent is native to Mexico and is a popular choice for both indoor and outdoor gardens. The main feature of the Pink Witch succulent is its striking pink color. The leaves are fleshy and have a powdery coating that gives them a unique texture. The plant typically grows in a rosette shape, with the leaves arranged in a circular pattern. The rosette can become quite large, reaching up to six inches in diameter.

Pink Succulents

Pink Succulents are utterly charming. They bring a pop of color to arrangements and window sills alike. Sweet, pastel pink tones tend to be found in types like Echeveria, Graptopetalum, Sempervivum, and tender hybrids. They're usually adapted to full sun conditions, so give your pink plants as much light as possible to bring out their most vibrant hues.

In arrangements, pink succulents make quite an impact when grouped together. You can also achieve eye-catching contrast by pairing them with complementary colors such as Blue Succulents .

In addition to bright light, infrequent watering can "beautifully stress" a succulent and bring out a rosy pink blush. Succulents are adapted to long droughts and like to be watered in a cycle of soaking and drying periods. Only water when the soil is completely dry and the leaves start to feel limp. Then, deeply drench the plant and do not water again until the soil is completely dry.

Some succulents get a soft, pastel look from a natural wax that coats their leaves. This powdery coating is called "farina". It protects the foliage in direct sun and gives an elegant, matte finish to the plants. Avoid touching or watering the leaves of these powdery types if possible. Farina rubs off easily and once removed it will not grow back on old leaves.

Succulents of all colors thrive in well-draining pots and soil. Use a gritty soil mix with a high proportion of coarse sand, perlite, pumice, or other mineral grit. A lean soil like Bonsai Jack's Gritty Mix helps a succulent develop strong roots and prevents rot. Pair it with a container with a drainage hole to help your succulent thrive and show its best coloration.

Most plants are shown in 2 Inch pots (square), 4 Inch pots (round or square), 6 Inch pots (round), and 8 Inch pots (round). The Size option, such as 2 Inch, 4 Inch, etc., typically represents the size of the pot that the plant is shown in. In most cases, it does not represent the width, length, or height of the plant, with some exceptions: - Monkey Tail Cactus: The size represents the length of the cactus - Some columnar cactus / cacti plants - Certain plants that are shown without a pot

Letter Suffix in Size

When a letter is added to the size value (Example: 2 Inch #A or 4 Inch #B), it represents different variants of the same size. The meaning could vary depending on the type of plant. The corresponding listing photos of each size variant provide the best representation of the plants that you'll receive. The letter suffix could represent one or more of the following: - Differences in plant maturity and/or fullness - Differences in plant size and/or shape - Differences in style and/or color - Differences in amount of variegation - Unrooted cuttings vs. rooted plants

Packaging & Handling

Vast majority of our plants shown in 4 Inch or larger pots are shipped bare roots (See below fore more details). Most plants shown in 2 Inch pots are shipped in their original plastic pots with soil because they are small and are less subject to damaging during transit. We carefully wrap each plant with wrapping paper and place them securely inside the box. Then, we fill the remaining space in the box with newsprint paper, air pillows, or crinkle paper to ensure the plants don't move around during shipping, and hence minimize shipping shock.

Shipping:
Please allow us up to 3 business days to prepare your order. All plants will be sent bare rooted and packaged with great care. Soil is not included to prevent any damage or rotten issues. If your local temperature is below 50°F, please add a heat pack to your order to ensure the safe delivery of your plants. If you have any special instructions or need the package to leave our nursery at any specific date, please add a note in your order during check-out.

Tips:
Once you receive your purchase, we recommend planting the succulents in soil immediately. Due to shipping, the plants may appear dry, soft, or lighter/darker in color compared to the photos in the online pictures.

Soil:
For optimal growth, use porous, well-draining soil with a 1:1 ratio of amendment (like pumice or perlite) to cactus/succulent soil. This provides proper drainage and prevents root rot. Monitor soil moisture and adjust watering accordingly, as succulents require minimal watering and dislike sitting in wet soil.

Sunlight:
Introduce sunlight to your new plants gradually. Do not put your succulents in direct sunlight, but instead try to increase the sun exposure gradually in your home or outside. Leaving your new plants in direct sun will lead to sunburns. We normally suggest our customers have 40% shade fabric in the area that has intense sunlight.

Watering:
To keep your succulent healthy, water it only when the soil is dry, and avoid letting it sit on wet soil overnight to prevent root rot.

Cactus upon Arrivals:
Upon receiving your cactus, it's essential to handle it with care to avoid damaging the plant. It's recommended to wait at least one week after receiving your cactus before watering to allow it to acclimate to its new environment. Once ready, water your cactus sparingly, being careful not to overwater as this can cause root rot. During the dormant season, typically in the winter, it's important to avoid watering your cactus altogether. By following these simple steps, you can help your cactus thrive and enjoy its unique beauty for years to come.

Reviews for "How the pink witch succulent got its name"

1. Sarah - 2 stars - I was really excited to add the Pink Witch Succulent to my collection, but I was ultimately disappointed. The plant arrived looking quite sickly and was already wilted. Despite my best efforts to care for it, the succulent ended up dying within a couple of weeks. I've had success with other succulents before, so I'm not a novice when it comes to caring for these plants. I wouldn't recommend the Pink Witch Succulent based on my experience.

2. Ryan - 3 stars - While the Pink Witch Succulent is undeniably unique and aesthetically pleasing, it requires a lot more care and attention compared to other succulents I own. This particular plant seems to be more sensitive to changes in light and temperature, making it a challenge to maintain. Additionally, I found that it was more prone to pests like mealybugs. If you're an experienced succulent enthusiast and don't mind the extra effort, you might enjoy the Pink Witch Succulent. But for those looking for a low-maintenance plant, I'd say look elsewhere.

3. Erica - 2 stars - The Pink Witch Succulent arrived in pretty poor condition, with several leaves already yellow and shriveled. I was hopeful that with proper care, it would bounce back, but unfortunately, it continued to decline. I followed the care instructions provided, but it seemed like the plant was already struggling when I received it. I'm disappointed with the quality of this succulent and wouldn't recommend it to others. There are plenty of other healthier and sturdier succulents available.
