Echeveria Tippy (4 inch)

About Echeveria Tippy (4 inch)

Echeveria 'Tippy' belongs to the Crassulaceae family of the Echeveria genus. Its elongated spoon-shaped leaves taper to a pointed tip and are densely arranged in a rosette shape. The fresh, tender, pale yellow jelly-like color is beautiful and tends to blush easily. Leaf color varies slightly with the seasons, ranging from yellow-green to blue-white. The tips of the leaves will turn red in full sun.

How to care for Echeveria Tippy (4 inch)

Sun/Temperature: Echeveria Tippy is a plant that requires a warm, dry, and well-ventilated environment to thrive. It loves the sun, but it should be placed in a shaded area in hot summer months. The ideal temperature for this plant is between 60°F and 80°F; during winter, it should not be exposed to temperatures below 30°F. If grown indoors during winter, place it in a sunny location.

Soil/Watering: Echeveria Tippy is drought-tolerant and dislikes excessive moisture. Water uses the soak and dry method, and well-draining succulent soil is used.

Pot: To reduce the risk of root rot, select a well-ventilated pot with drainage holes. Echeveria Tippy produces offsets efficiently, so a bottomless pot with a wide opening is preferable.

Propagation: Echeveria Tippy can quickly propagate through offsets. Once the offsets have grown to a reasonable size, use sterilized scissors to cut them off and allow the wounds to dry before planting them in dry soil.

Winter shipping

We insist on shipping succulents to our customers all year round. However due to the extreme winter weather, although we pack succulents with as much protective material as possible, plants are still at increased risk of frost on their way to colder areas. We highly recommend adding one 72-hour heat pack to your order or you can request a hold on the package until it warms up.

Please note that The Next Gardener is not responsible for packages that suffer cold damage without a heat pack. We cannot control the weather. Order at your own risk.

Hawaii, Alaska, and Other US Territories

Fortunately, shipping is available to Alaska, Guam, and other U.S. Territories. However, due to numerous factors beyond our control, including customs checks and shipping delays, free shipping to Hawaii and Puerto Rico is not an option. And we can not provide the 14-day quality guarantee for orders going to Hawaii and Puerto Rico. The buyer will assume all risk of damage when a delivery is delayed. We appreciate your understanding.

Sorry. No International Shipping for now!!!
