How to Care for Echeveria ‘Malgan’

Sunlight: As Malgans possess naverse hybrid genes, growing them in outdoor areas where they can receive ample sunlight is highly recommended. However, in sweltering summers, it is advisable to provide shade or move them to an airy place to prevent sunburn or plant rot.

Water: Echeveria Malgans are a type of succulent with shorter stems than other Echeveria varieties. Watering this plant from the bottom is better than pouring water on top of the soil. This method can help prevent the base leaves from being exposed to excessive moisture, leading to rot—only water E. Malgan when the potting soil is completely dry.

Soil & Planter: Add 50~70% gritty rocks in the soil when planting Echeveria Malgan. This variety of succulents grows slowly and forms clusters easily. Therefore, it is suggested to use a slightly wider shallow planter pot for growing Echeveria Malgan. Clay pots or maifanitum stone-made planters are better choices.

Temperature: Echeveria Malgan thrives in warm and dry environments with temperatures ranging from 50-77℉. Move the plant indoors before the temperature drops to 41℉ as this variety is not a cold hardy succulent.

Fertilizer: Replant the succulent with fresh organic soil every spring, which can provide the essential nutrients for them to thrive. Moreover, feeding them with slow-release fertilizer two or three times in spring can also meet the need.

Propagation: Leaf propagation and cluster buds are efficient ways to grow more succulents. It is important to take healthy and plump leaves from the mother plant and let the wound callus over before placing them on the soil.
