Echeveria 'Compton Carousel' (Lenore Dean)

Also known as 'Lenore Dean'

Echeveria 'Compton Carousel' is not for the faint hearted. If new to the world of succulents this may not be a great beginner plant. 

Echeveria 'Compton Carousel' is a highly sought-after succulent, admired for its variegated green and creamy-white leaves that form elegant, tight rosettes. This plant can reach up to 25 cm in diameter.

Due to its delicate variegation and lower chlorophyll levels, it prefers a bit of shade in the summer, as direct sunlight may scorch its leaves. To keep it thriving, use well-draining soil and water regularly (when leaves begin to wilt) during its active growing season, ensuring the soil dries out completely between waterings. 

• Produces orange, pink or yellow flowers on arching flower stalks during early summer.
• Partial shade, especially during summer
• Water when soil is dry and around the plant, not into the rosette. DOES NOT LIKE OVERWATERING.
• Up to 25cm in diameter.
• Ideally, it should be kept in a dry, frost-free environment during winter.
• Propagation by cuttings, leaves, and offsets
• Winter dormant and should have little to no water during this time.

Please Note:

Plants are sent bare rooted. A snazzy way of saying it will arrive with minimal or no soil or pot.

Succulents need to travel with the least moisture as possible due to potential problems, such as rotting. This means they are taken out of their pots and their roots are allowed to dry out before sending. As a result, plants may arrive looking slightly different to photos. Some maybe a little dry looking or slightly wrinkled leaves for example, remember succulents are hardy and will bounce back with a little TLC. TLC instructions will be within your order.
