Echeveria 'Blue Sky' is a visually stunning and vigorous succulent that is a hybrid of the popular Echeveria genus. It is highly sought after for its large, sculptural rosettes and unique, powdery blue-green leaves. With a form similar to other classic Echeveria, 'Blue Sky' is a fantastic choice for adding a touch of serene elegance to any succulent collection, container garden, or rockery.

 

Detailed Description

 

Echeveria 'Blue Sky' is a large-growing succulent, with individual rosettes that can reach up to 12 inches (30 cm) in diameter. It forms a single, striking rosette of broad, spoon-shaped, and fleshy leaves. The foliage has a beautiful powdery coating, or farina, which gives it a serene blue-green to grayish-blue color. This coating not only adds to the plant's aesthetic appeal but also serves as a natural sunscreen, protecting the leaves from intense sunlight.

One of the most appealing features of 'Blue Sky' is its ability to change color. When exposed to bright sun and cooler temperatures, the edges and tips of the leaves can develop a lovely, deep pink or red blush, creating a stunning two-toned effect. The plant offsets freely, eventually forming large, solid clumps over a foot wide, making it a great groundcover or filler for a large container.

In the summer, mature plants produce a branched, arching inflorescence bearing clusters of small, pink flowers that attract hummingbirds.

 

Growing Tips

 

'Blue Sky' is a relatively easy-care succulent that thrives with the right balance of light and water.

  • Sunlight: This succulent prefers bright light to maintain its compact shape and vibrant colors. Full sun is ideal for bringing out the pink edges, but it can also thrive in bright, indirect light. If grown in too little light, the rosette may flatten and the stems will stretch, a condition known as etiolation.

  • Fertilizing: Like most Echeveria, 'Blue Sky' is not a heavy feeder. During its active growing season (spring and summer), a diluted, balanced succulent or cactus fertilizer can be applied once a month.

  • Pruning: Pruning is not usually necessary. You can remove any dead or dying lower leaves to keep the rosette looking tidy and to ward off pests.

 

Temperature and Hardiness

 

Echeveria 'Blue Sky' is not frost-tolerant.

  • Temperature: It thrives in ideal daytime temperatures in the 70s°F (21-26°C) and cooler nighttime temperatures. It does not handle soil temperatures below freezing.

  • Hardiness Zones: It is typically hardy in USDA zones 9-11. In colder climates, it is best grown in containers that can be brought indoors during the winter.

 

Water Requirements

 

Overwatering is the most common cause of problems with Echeveria. This plant is drought-tolerant and stores water in its leaves.

  • Watering Frequency: Use the "soak and dry" method. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. When you do water, do so deeply and thoroughly, ensuring all excess water drains from the bottom of the pot. Avoid letting water sit in the rosette, as this can lead to rot and fungal diseases.

  • Seasonal Changes: Reduce watering significantly in the cooler, dormant months.

 

Soil Preparation

 

Well-draining soil is crucial for the health of your 'Blue Sky' to prevent root rot.

  • Ideal Mix: A commercial succulent or cactus potting mix is a perfect choice.

  • DIY Mix: You can create your own gritty mix by combining regular potting soil with inorganic amendments like perlite, pumice, or coarse sand. A mix with at least 50% to 70% mineral grit is recommended for optimal drainage.

  • Potting: Always use a pot with a drainage hole.

 

Propagation

 

Propagating Echeveria 'Blue Sky' is a straightforward and rewarding process.

  • Offsets (Pups): This is the most common and simple method. The plant will naturally produce new offsets, or "chicks," around the base of the main rosette. These can be left to form a tidy cluster or gently removed and transplanted to their own pots.

  • Leaf Cuttings: This method is also very successful. Gently remove a healthy, plump leaf from the stem. Lay the leaf on top of well-draining soil. Be patient, as it may take a few weeks or months to see new growth and roots form from the base of the leaf.

  • Stem Cuttings: You can also "behead" older, leggy plants and root the rosette as a stem cutting. Allow the cut stem to callous over before planting.

So good!
Format: Kindle
Wings of Stars was a fantastic first book to a new series. It grabbed me in its clutches within the first chapter and kept ahold of me. This new world of M Sinclair and RL Caulder’s is all about angels and mythical creatures. It’s full of drama from all points. From Kieran’s awful home life to keeping the stars alive and everything in between. Kieran is our FMC and despite everything she keeps her spirit and defiance. Keeping to their norm, there is a group of guys for our FMC but they definitely aren’t established yet, and not fully cemented yet into being a group rather than her choosing between them. Ronan is so sweet and gives off Daddy vibes Gabe is also sweet and wants the best of everything for Kieran and will defend her against anyone Bastian is slightly unhinged but I loved him immediately Steele is a jerk… just as you find redeeming qualities, he screws up again… but yet I still want him to redeem himself. There’s another one… but if I gave his name I would be spoiling a plot twist so you will just have to find out yourself… but you’ll love him as much as I do. This is a slow burn but the little bit of spice we do get is hot, especially with the dirty talk.

Angels and the Fallen — Breathtaking Start
Format: Kindle
This book was EVERYTHING I expected it to be and more. Leave to R.L. Caulder and M. Sinclair to give us yet another amazing book! Kieran and her guys hooked me from the very beginning and did not let go. Found family is one of my favorite tropes and it was done so well in this book. Couple that along with an FMC trying to find her place in the world and I was practically drooling over this book. The world building, the conflict, the wyverin sidekick — it all was done so well that it felt fresh and real. Each love interest felt real and unique in their own ways. I felt connected to each one and like they were truly different people. I love that so much in a book and these two authors never miss with their love interests. Multi POV, Reverse harem, who did this to you, and a magical world highlighting the angels and the fallen. This book has everything and it does it so well. Big thank you to R.L. Caulder and M. Sinclair for the arc copy! I cannot wait for book 2!

A new take 🤔
Format: Kindle
I’m not going to go into what this book is about — by now you e already read the synopsis and have an idea — but I will give a couple of insights. Definitely a different take on angels and their fall; I like it. This is an interesting start to a new series - YES, this does end on a cliffhanger so be prepared for that. I’m eager for the next book (and hopefully the last in this series — sometimes the author(s) will switch it up depending on how the story flows for them) in this series. I’m hoping that a certain male character redeems himself because he’s a dick that will make the meaning of mixed signals jealous lol. You ever watch that old movie — I think it’s call Mommy Dearest? — yea, let’s switch that up to daddy. That man would make a perfect husband to mommy dearest. I recommend this book because while these authors are well known for their cliffhangers, they are also well known for putting out good stories.

Liked it
Format: Kindle
I liked the worlds and the characters. The prophesy is confusing in that I would think, since all worlds ore on a path to destruction, the angels would want their world to be saved. I am sure there is more evil that will be revealed as the series proceeds. I dislike a prolonged “poor little me” trope and the main character has moved past that, thankfully, and began to show a fierce attitude as the novel progressed. The last portion of the novel had some great action. It’s worth reading, just be patient with a slow start.

OUTSTANDING
Format: Kindle
This was very, very good. The world is vast and characters are complex. There is a good plot with a whole lot going on. This is well written. Good twists and turns and some heart breaking moments. You will love these characters, they have heart and loyalty. I am hoping that there will be several more books. We've yet to see anything from the Sea Court but only a mention of them here and there. The Wood Court was given a quick couple of scenes, and only as far as some warriors, we've yet to enter their court and the Shadow Court, I'm not sure if they will be a force for good or bad, but they definitely will play a much bigger role moving forward. This is primarily the Ice and Air Courts. Told in multiple views, which I loved, it gives you a chance to see things from different eyes. There's alot of political maneuvering and deception. I loved it and will pick up the next book as it becomes available. If you like The Fae and the courts, you should love this. I think the author has mucn in store for us.
