The Maroon Witch succulent, also known as Echeveria 'Maroon' or Echeveria 'Black Prince,' is a striking and popular plant among succulent enthusiasts. It is native to Mexico and belongs to the Crassulaceae family. This succulent is known for its attractive dark-colored rosettes, which can range from deep purple to almost black, hence its name. The Maroon Witch succulent has thick, fleshy leaves that grow in a compact rosette formation. The leaves are oblong or spoon-shaped and have a glossy, waxy texture. The plant's distinctive dark coloration is caused by a natural pigment called anthocyanin, which is responsible for the deep red or purple hues.

Wise men knew that the color of a candle greatly affects not only the energy of space, but also has a direct influence on humans. Some scientists made observations and analyzed each color of candles during meditation and came to the following conclusion: candles can not only cleanse with their flame but also attract money into your life, improve family relationships, balance and energize you. And the ritual with a candle will help the meditator, which will require only 10-15 minutes a day.

Meditation with a candle
Preparation for meditation:
- Before meditation, you need to finish all your doings, turn off the phone, and remove everything that will distract you. It is very important to follow this rule, otherwise, it won’t work.
- Take the ritual very seriously and with great responsibility, you must concentrate and fully trust this process.
- Choose the color of the candle that is closest to your emotional state or the one that will help you attract something in your life. The choice can be made in two ways:
1) Just trust yourself and take the candle that you like the most - in this case, your subconscious will tell you what you need;
2) A conscious approach - choose the color that best suits you.
How to Meditate:
It is best to meditate in a dimmed room - if you decide to start meditating during the day, then close your windows with curtains. It is important that the sun does not shine in your eyes. It is preferable to meditate in the evenings.
In order to better focus, you can pick up any natural stone: the best ones are amethyst, rock crystal and fluorite. It is also good to read your favorite prayer to yourself. Sit comfortably, and you are ready to begin.
Place a candle at eye level and look closely at the fire, try to concentrate on the candle as much as possible. Do not rush yourself: not everyone can turn off their thoughts immediately, but do not give up. After 21 days of meditation, you will feel how all thoughts will evaporate only at the sight of the flame itself.
At first, it’s better to meditate for about ten minutes, then you can stay in it for up to half an hour - the main thing is to listen to yourself. And the last thing: if you want to close your eyes during meditation, feel free to do it, and just try to visualize this candle in your subconscious.
It is better to leave the meditative state gradually, and stay in peace and quiet for some time.
The candle must be put out by hand after meditation and put in a box until the next meditation. You need to meditate once a day with one color.
It is best suited for well-draining soil, as excessive moisture can lead to root rot. It thrives in bright or direct sunlight but can also tolerate partial shade. In terms of propagation, the Maroon Witch succulent can be propagated through leaf or stem cuttings. Leaf cuttings are the most common method, where individual leaves are removed from the plant and left to dry for a few days until a callus forms. The callused end is then placed in well-draining soil, and new roots and offshoots will develop over time. As with other succulents, the Maroon Witch requires minimal fertilizer. A balanced liquid or slow-release fertilizer formulated for cacti and succulents can be applied during the growing season. Over-fertilization should be avoided, as it can lead to weak growth or even plant damage. The Maroon Witch succulent is a versatile plant that can be grown both indoors and outdoors. In containers or pots, it adds a touch of elegance to any space, while in the garden, it can be used as a ground cover or in rock gardens. It also pairs well with other succulent varieties, creating beautiful and visually appealing arrangements. In conclusion, the Maroon Witch succulent is a captivating plant that stands out for its dark-colored rosettes and easy care requirements. With its striking appearance and low maintenance needs, it is no wonder that this succulent is highly sought after by succulent enthusiasts and collectors alike..

1. Jessica - 1 star - I was really disappointed with the Maroon witch succulent. The color advertised online was not at all accurate. It was more of a dull brownish color rather than the vibrant maroon that I was expecting. Additionally, the plant arrived in poor condition with some leaves looking wilted and droopy. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this succulent to anyone looking for a pop of color in their collection.
2. Michael - 2 stars - As an avid succulent collector, I was excited to add the Maroon witch succulent to my collection. However, upon receiving it, I was quite underwhelmed. The plant was much smaller than I had anticipated and it had a strange odor to it. Despite following all the care instructions, the succulent seemed to wither and die within a few weeks. I was really disappointed with the overall quality and longevity of this plant.
