Black Laxmi Kamal succulent is a striking and unique variety of Echeveria, known for its dark, almost blackish-purple leaves that form a beautiful rosette shape. It’s a close relative of the traditional Laxmi Kamal (Echeveria peacockii) but stands out due to its dramatic coloration and compact form.

Here’s a full explanation:


🌿 Scientific Classification

  • Botanical Name: Echeveria species (Black Laxmi Kamal is a hybrid or cultivar)
  • Common Name: Black Laxmi Kamal, Black Echeveria
  • Family: Crassulaceae

🌸 Appearance

  • Leaves: Thick, fleshy, and spoon-shaped with a smooth surface. The color ranges from deep purple to near-black, depending on sunlight exposure.
  • Rosette: Compact, symmetrical, and about 7–12 cm wide.
  • Color Variation: In bright sunlight, the leaves turn darker (almost black), while in partial shade, they appear deep maroon or greenish-purple.
  • Flowers: Produces small pink or orange bell-shaped flowers on tall stalks during the growing season (spring or early summer).

🌞 Care Requirements

Light

  • Prefers bright sunlight (4–6 hours daily).
  • Full sun enhances the deep blackish tone.
  • Indoors, place near a south-facing window or under a grow light.

Watering

  • Follow the “soak and dry” method: water only when the soil is completely dry.
  • Avoid letting water sit on the rosette to prevent rot.
  • Reduce watering in winter when growth slows.

Soil

  • Use well-draining cactus or succulent mix.
  • You can add sand or perlite to improve drainage.

Temperature

  • Ideal range: 18–28°C.
  • Protect from frost; move indoors if temperature drops below 10°C.

Fertilizer

  • Feed lightly during the growing season (spring–summer) using a diluted succulent fertilizer once a month.

🌱 Propagation

  • Easily propagated through leaf cuttings or offsets (pups).
  • Allow the cut end to dry for a day or two before planting in well-draining soil.

⚠️ Common Problems

  • Overwatering: Causes root or stem rot.
  • Lack of Sunlight: Leaves may turn greenish and lose their dark color.
  • Pests: Watch out for mealybugs or aphids around the base of leaves.
