Bring home the Molded Wax Plant ‘Salmon’ for year-round colour and bold architectural beauty. Molded Wax Plant Echeveria ‘Agavoides’ Salmon
Plant in sandy, well-draining soil and position in full sun for the richest colour, though it will also thrive in semi-shade. Water sparingly, allowing soil to dry between watering, and reduce watering in winter. Remove spent flower stalks to encourage neat growth. Protect from frost and avoid overwatering to prevent rot.
The name “Agavoides” means “like an Agave,” referring to its sharp, pointed leaves that mimic the look of miniature agaves, but with the softer charm of an Echeveria.
