  • Scientific name: Graptopetalum amethystinum
  • Common names: Lavender Pebbles, Jewel Leaf Plant
  • Family: Crassulaceae (same as echeverias, sedums, and graptopetalums)

🌿 Appearance

  • Leaves:
    • Plump, rounded, and smooth — look like little pebbles or jelly beans.
    • Color ranges from pale pink to lavender, silvery gray, or bluish, depending on light and temperature.
    • Covered with a natural waxy coating (farina) that gives them a frosted look and protects them from sunburn.
  • Growth habit:
    • Forms small rosettes that cluster over time into a mound.
    • Each rosette grows up to about 10–15 cm (4–6 inches) tall.
  • Flowers:
    • Star-shaped, usually white or pale yellow with reddish speckles.
    • Appear on long, thin stems in late winter to early spring.

☀️ Care Requirements

Light

  • Prefers bright, indirect sunlight or a few hours of direct morning sun.
  • Too little light causes stretching (etiolation) — the leaves spread out and lose color.
  • Too much harsh midday sun can scorch the leaves.

Watering

  • Follow the “soak and dry” method: water deeply, then wait until soil is completely dry before watering again.
  • Overwatering can easily cause root rot due to its thick, water-storing leaves.
  • In winter, reduce watering — the plant rests and uses less water.

Soil

  • Needs well-draining soil, such as a cactus/succulent mix.
  • You can improve drainage by adding pumice, perlite, or coarse sand.

Temperature

  • Ideal range: 18–27°C (65–80°F).
  • Protect from frost; it can tolerate brief dips to around 0°C (32°F), but not sustained cold.

Humidity

  • Prefers dry air. Avoid humid environments or misting.

🌱 Propagation

Very easy to propagate by:

  • Leaf cuttings: Gently twist off a healthy leaf, let it callous for a few days, then place it on dry soil. New roots and rosettes will form.
  • Stem cuttings: Cut a healthy stem, let it dry for a few days, then plant it in well-draining soil.
  • Offsets: Small rosettes that form at the base can be separated and replanted.

⚠️ Common Problems

  • Overwatering: Causes mushy, translucent leaves and root rot.
  • Insufficient light: Leads to elongated, pale rosettes.
  • Handling damage: The powdery farina rubs off easily — handle by the stem if possible.
