Echeveria Melaco stands out remarkably in any arrangement due to its impressive height and unique coloring. The captivating gradient of hues encompasses variations of copper, plum, salmon, and chocolate brown, often accompanied by a captivating sea green center. For optimal indoor growth, place it in close proximity to a sunlit window, which enhances its vibrant tones. The name 'Melaco,' derived from "molasses" in Portuguese, pays homage to the lush, glossy leaves that serve as its inspiration.

Watering Indoors: Instead of providing your succulents with frequent sips of water, it's better to give them a thorough soaking until water drains out from the pot's drainage holes.
