A stunning Korean hybrid, Echeveria 'Madiba' develops broad, sculpted rosettes with slightly wavy leaf edges and soft pastel tones that shift between green, pink, and cream depending on light and season. Mature plants can reach around 15 cm across and seldom produce offsets, making each one a standout specimen. Excellent structure and colour make it ideal for collectors or as a feature in decorative containers.
Care
Light: Full sun to partial shade. Best colour and leaf form develop in bright light. Indoors, position in a sunny window or under strong grow lights.
Water: Water thoroughly, then allow to dry before rewatering. In winter, keep on the dry side. Plants tolerate drought but grow best with consistent moisture during warm months.
Media: Free-draining succulent mix; avoid dense or moisture-holding soil.
Temperature: Protect from frost; ideal above 7 °C.
Feeding: Apply fertiliser at 25 % of normal strength monthly during active growth. Lower feeding maintains colour and compact shape.
Repotting: Can remain in the same pot for extended periods; repot in warmer months when rootbound.
