Appearance: They form compact rosettes of thick, fleshy leaves that store water, often displaying vibrant colors, especially when exposed to ample sunlight. Light: Echeverias thrive in bright light, ideally full sun or partial shade outdoors, and bright, indirect light indoors to maintain their vibrant coloration. Watering: Like most succulents, they prefer infrequent watering. Water thoroughly when the soil is completely dry, and ensure excellent drainage to prevent root rot.
