Graptoveria 'Fred Ives' Highlights:
  • Graptopetulum paraguayense and Echeveria gibbiflora hybrid.
  • This giant showstopper is known to reach upwards of 12" wide and 8" tall. 'Fred Ives' truly impressive rosettes range in color from pink, purple, orange, yellow, coral, and even bluish-green tones depending on the conditions under which it is grown.
  • Produces tall bloom stalks with yellow, star-shaped flowers that typically bloom in the summer.
  • Easily propagated from leaf and stem cuttings. This voracious propagator is even known to throw off new plant babies along its spent bloom stalks!
  • Hardy to Zone 9b (25°-30° F). Graptoveria will not survive a hard frost. However, succulents can easily be grown indoors under grow lights or in a sunny window if there is a risk of temperatures dropping below 35° F. If there is only a risk of freezing temperatures for a few days, most succulents do just fine outside if they are covered by frost cloth or a sheet until temperatures increase (I'm talking to you, Zone 9 friends).
Graptoveria Care: As with all succulents, it is best to follow a "soak and dry" schedule where you water your plants deeply (until water runs out the bottom drain holes), and then allow your soil to dry completely before watering again. Succulents should always be planted in well-draining cactus and succulent soil and in a pot or container that has drain holes.
