Echeveria Peacockii is known to be an evergreen succulent that has a rosette that can reach up to 15 cm (6″) in diameter. Most notable are the powdery blue-gray leaves that often have red edges and tips when exposed to much sunlight. During the summer you can expect coral to pinkish colored flowers.
The peacock is drought tolerant. It doesn’t need frequent watering, especially during the winter.Never pour water into the rosette.Allow the soil to dry between watering.Do not water during dormancy
If grown indoors, set it in any window with bright light but doesn’t get direct afternoon full sun.
Fertilizer can be used, but only sparingly. Using too much fertilizer may lead to excessive growth, weakening the plant.
These echeveria species grow best in fast-draining soil. Common recommendations include cactus mix, sandy soil, or regular potting soil with gravel and pumice.The soil needs to drain fast to keep the roots from soaking in moisture, which may lead to rot.
Remove dead leaves throughout the year. Dead foliage provides places for pests to hide and water to collect. Cut the dead leaves close to the base, allowing new foliage to take its place.
For optimal growth, place the plant in partial shade in USDA hardiness zones 9 to 11. It prefers mild, dry climates and cover from the direct sunlight.The peacockii echeveria cannot tolerate frost. If kept outdoors in cool regions, bring the plant indoors for the winter.
