Echeveria ‘Dark Wave’ likes bright light, and will begin to etiolate, or stretch, in conditions that are too dim. Depending on the intensity of the sun in your region, however, you may need to protect this variety from the harsh afternoon light to avoid sun burning the leaves. Porous soil with great drainage, and thorough watering only when the soil is dry, will protect the plant from rot, and care should be taken not to let water become trapped between the leaves. Furthermore, be sure to provide your plant with excellent airflow around the leaves and soil surface, and protect from freezing temperatures in the winter, as this beauty is only cold hardy to Zone 9.
Mature plants will reach 3-5 inches tall and up to 8 inches wide, and will send up tall bloom stalks topped with coral, bell shaped flowers.
