After arrival guide

  • Place in bright shade for 24-48 hours.
  • If soil is dry, wait 2-3 days before watering.
  • Increase sun gradually to enhance color.

Cacti can look slightly dull after a few days in a dark box. Color returns within a week or two of bright light. If your area drops below 40F, we recommend adding a heat pack to your order, as one is not automatically included.

2" Echeveria 'Melaco' (Echeveria hybrid)

Echeveria 'Melaco' is one of the richest-colored echeverias: glossy rosettes in deep copper, red, and burgundy that darken in strong light. A standout accent in any arrangement. Every plant we ship is fully rooted in a 2" nursery pot and ready to plant the day it arrives.

Melaco is a favorite accent for arrangements and favors, and the price per plant drops as your pack grows.
