Graptoveria Rose Queen

Graptoveria is a hybrid genus crossing Graptopetalum and Echeveria, producing rosette-forming succulents that inherit the best qualities of both parents - the plump, geometric form of Echeveria with the hardiness and colour intensity of Graptopetalum. They are among the easier rosette succulents for Perth gardens and pots, tolerating more heat and neglect than pure Echeveria. Full sun to bright indirect light. Excellent drainage. Water thoroughly then allow to dry completely before watering again. Minimal fertiliser. Rose Queen produces rosettes in soft, warm rose-pink tones that are most vivid in full sun. The colour has a gentle, romantic quality - less saturated than the reds but more interesting than the plain greens. A popular choice for mixed succulent arrangements and individual specimen pots.
