Altman Plants has patented echeveria 'Neon Breakers', a Renee O'Donnell hybrid of the succulent Pink Frills and an unknown parent. Its rosettes have several red-violet-mauve leaves with crinkly neon pink borders, hence the name. This vibrant succulent is particularly popular since it grows quickly and continuously and is also more pest-resistant than standard Echeveria.

Water:
Echeveria 'Neon Breakers' thrives in arid conditions, storing water efficiently and requiring minimal hydration. This drought-tolerant succulent prefers well-draining soil and needs watering every three weeks. Traditionally grown indoors, it benefits from occasional misting to mimic its native low-humidity environment.
Fertilize:
Most echeveria 'Neon Breakers' thrive in poor environments and typically do not require fertilization. A slow-release fertilizer may be used in early summer, but it is not necessary. Avoid fertilizing during dormancy, as excess nutrients can harm its growth.
Pruning:
To maintain a neat shape, prune echeveria 'Neon Breakers' in spring and fall by removing dense or redundant branches. For propagation, cut a stout stem with 5-6 leaves, treat the wound with sulfur powder, and plant after healing. Ensure soil is slightly moist for optimal growth.
Propagation:
Succulents can be propagated primarily through leaf cuttings, especially in spring and fall. Cut a healthy leaf and place it on slightly humid soil (25℃, bright, scattered light). A bud will emerge at the leaf base within one to two weeks.
