Title: Echeveria 'Lila China'
Post by: carosanto on April 10, 2010, 17:26:31
Hi Y'All

I have a wonderful succulent Echeveria, which I bought at the Eden Project. It had two largish rosettes in a 6 inch pot, and, much to my amazement, survived our terrible winter here in Cornwall, in my freezing cold conservatory.  One of the rosettes has now thrown up a flower spike.

Questions: 1.  Can I now divide these two rosettes and give them each a new home?  and
                   2.  Should I wait till it's finished flowering  or should I do it sooner rather than later.

Your help would be much appreciated as this is a plant everyone comments on, it looks so good.


Regards

Caro

I know the answer is out there.
