Echeveria 'Cupid' / Graptoveria 'Topsy Debbi'

About Echeveria 'Cupid' / Graptoveria 'Topsy Debbi'

Echeveria 'Cupid' is a captivating succulent resulting from the crossbreeding of Echeveria runyonii 'Topsy Turvy' and xGraptoveria 'Debbi'. It features slightly twisted, elongated leaves with a reversed egg shape, exhibiting a subtle inward curve at the leaf tips. In low-light conditions, the leaves of Echeveria 'Cupid' may flatten and may not exhibit their usual plump appearance. Occasionally, a slight indentation appears at the top of the leaves, resembling a tiny heart when viewed from above – likely the inspiration behind the name 'Cupid'. With a purple hue, Echeveria 'Cupid' is an ideal choice for gardening enthusiasts, especially those new to succulents.

How to care for Echeveria 'Cupid' / Graptoveria 'Topsy Debbi'

Lighting: Echeveria 'Cupid' is easy to care for and can thrive outdoors with ample sunlight during the spring and fall seasons. When indoors, position it near a window to prevent elongation of the leaves.

Temperature: Remarkably adaptable, Echeveria 'Cupid' can be cared for outdoors even in the summer. Despite its drought tolerance, providing adequate shading to prevent sunburn is advisable. Move the succulent indoors when temperatures drop to 35°F.

Watering: Follow the "soak and dry" method, watering Echeveria 'Cupid' when the soil is completely dry. The leaves will quickly plump up after watering.

Soil and Pot: Echeveria 'Cupid' / Graptoveria 'Topsy Debbi' thrives in well-draining succulent soil. Ensure the pot has good drainage to prevent root rot.

We ship the orders on work days(from Monday to Saturday) and all year round. In normal conditions, it will take 3-10 days for you to receive the package.

EXTREME WEATHER NOTICE: The Next Gardener reserves the right to hold shipments during storms or periods of extreme heat or cold. This is to ensure your plant does not suffer while it is in transit.

Winter shipping

We insist on shipping succulents to our customers all year round. However due to the extreme winter weather, although we pack succulents with as much protective material as possible, plants are still at increased risk of frost on their way to colder areas. We highly recommend adding one 72-hour heat pack to your order or you can request a hold on the package until it warms up.

Please note that The Next Gardener is not responsible for packages that suffer cold damage without a heat pack. We cannot control the weather. Order at your own risk.

Hawaii, Alaska, and Other US Territories

Fortunately, shipping is available to Alaska, Guam, and other U.S. Territories. However, due to numerous factors beyond our control, including customs checks and shipping delays, free shipping to Hawaii and Puerto Rico is not an option. And we can not provide the 14-day quality guarantee for orders going to Hawaii and Puerto Rico. The buyer will assume all risk of damage when a delivery is delayed. We appreciate your understanding.

Sorry. No International Shipping for now!!!
