Description
Echeveria 'Emerald Ripple' is a captivating hybrid succulent that features vibrant green, fleshy leaves with a slight ruffled texture, forming a compact, symmetrical rosette. Its distinctively wavy leaf edges add a soft, delicate appearance, making it an ideal choice for succulent arrangements, pots, and rock gardens. This cultivar stands out in sunny garden beds or as a charming indoor plant with bright, indirect light, perfectly suited to Perth’s climate.
Best grown in well-draining, sandy or gritty soil, 'Emerald Ripple' requires minimal watering, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings to prevent root rot. Feed with a balanced, low-nitrogen succulent fertiliser during the warmer months to promote healthy growth. In late spring (Kambarang), it may produce small, pinkish-red flowers that provide a delightful contrast to its lush green foliage.
