About the Echeveria 'Rain Drops' (4 inch)
Echeveria 'Rain Drops' stands out as one of the most distinctive succulents, showcasing its adorable rather than peculiar appearance with raised bumps on its rounded leaves. The charming circular leaves paired with well-defined bumps give 'Rain Drops' an irresistibly cute look. When in its prime state, the color transitions from blue-green to a striking red, making it a focal point in any succulent collection.
How to Care for Echeveria 'Rain Drops' (4 inch)
Sunlight: Best cultivated outdoors with abundant light to develop red bumps. Bumps may decrease or disappear with insufficient light.
Temperature: Similar to most Echeveria, it thrives in temperatures between 40-95°F. Greater temperature differences lead to reddening.
Watering: Bumps store water, so follow the soak and dry principle and extend watering intervals when necessary.
Soil and Pot: Use a mix of 50% peat soil and 50% perlite for proper nutrition and drainage.

Shipping Speed
In general, it takes 3 to 10 days for plants to arrive after you place your order. All orders will be shipped out 48 hours after you place them. 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. Estimated shipping times are offered as needed.

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!!!
