How to Care for the Plant

Water
The watering method is very important to keep your Serrana healthy. It should not sit on the water, and an excess amount of water should be avoided. The best way of watering is soak and dry method this succulent. Yet, the succulent should be controlled to avoid overwatering.
Pruning
Pruning Echeverias doesn’t just give you the ability to produce lots of new succulents. You can also encourage new growth, control its height and shape, and even prevent root rot. Pruning is typically done during two different times: During Echeveria’s growth season (which starts in the spring), or throughout the year as leaves are dropped, succulents get leggy, and when propagation is desired. By the end of this article, you’ll have beautiful, healthier succulents (and hopefully new succulents!).
Fertilizer
Use a slow-release fertilizer at the beginning of spring, or a liquid fertilizer diluted 2-4 times more than normal and used less often than recommended. Use a low nitrogen mix or a cactus fertilizer. Remember that it is a lot easier to over-fertilize succulents than to under-fertilize
