Echeveria Decora Variegated is a rare succulent in the Crassulaceae family, native to semi-arid regions of Mexico. It forms tight, sculptural rosettes and evolved to grow in bright, dry conditions with excellent drainage.
The leaves are spoon-shaped, soft, and fleshy, with variegation that blends creamy whites, soft greens, and rosy pink to purple blush tones across each rosette. Color intensity deepens with more sun exposure, shifting as seasons and lighting change. Leaves layer tightly in a classic rosette form, creating a compact, jewel-like plant about 4 inches across.
Echeveria Decora produces coral-to-pink blooms on arching stems in spring to early summer when nighttime temperatures dip. Flowering occurs after a seasonal temperature drop triggers the blooming cycle.
Move it outside in summer to a bright, sheltered spot, but bring it indoors before temperatures near freezing and protect it from heavy rain. It is pet friendly and non-toxic to cats and dogs. You can leave it up to ten days without water. Echeveria Decora is a slow to moderate grower. Because variegation does not propagate reliably through leaf cuttings, offsets produce the most consistent results.

Echeveria Decora Variegated grows well in bright indirect light, partial sun, or full sun, though avoid peak summer heat on south-facing windows.
Water it deeply every 10 to 14 days in summer, then reduce to once every three to four weeks in winter.
Echeveria Decora does best in a fast-draining cactus and perlite mix blended 50/50 for excellent aeration and root health.
It prefers temperatures between 60 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit and should move indoors before frost.
