Echeveria Gilva Cristata Succulent
Echeveria Gilva Cristata is a crested form of the Echeveria Gilva, known for its unusual, fan-shaped rosettes that grow in a beautiful, sculptural pattern. The word “cristata” (or crested) refers to a natural mutation where the main growing point of the plant produces a wavy, ridge-like stem instead of a single rosette — giving it a unique, coral-like appearance.


🌿 Appearance:

  • Leaves: Thick, fleshy, and spoon-shaped; smooth with pointed tips.
  • Color: Green to yellow-green with pinkish to reddish edges when exposed to bright light or cool temperatures.
  • Form: The crested (fan) growth makes it look like multiple rosettes fused together — a striking, sculptural look.
  • Flowers: Produces small, bell-shaped orange-yellow flowers on tall stalks during the growing season (usually spring to summer).

🌞 Light Requirements:

  • Bright light to full sun is ideal.
  • Indoors: Place near a sunny window (south or west-facing).
  • Outdoors: Provide at least 4–6 hours of direct sunlight daily for best color and compact growth.
  • Avoid sudden changes from shade to strong sun — this can cause sunburn.

💧 Watering:

  • Use the “soak and dry” method — water thoroughly, then let the soil dry completely before watering again.
  • Overwatering can cause root rot, especially since crested varieties have denser crowns where moisture can collect.
  • Water less in winter when growth slows down.

🌱 Soil:

  • Use a well-draining succulent mix (e.g., cactus mix with added perlite or pumice).
  • Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.

🌡️ Temperature:

  • Prefers 18–30°C (65–85°F).
  • Protect from frost; temperatures below 5°C (41°F) can damage the plant.
  • In cold climates, grow indoors or in a greenhouse.

🍽️ Fertilizer:

  • Feed lightly during the growing season (spring–summer) with a diluted succulent fertilizer once a month.
  • Avoid fertilizing in winter.
