Common Name: Perle von Nurnberg, Duchess of Nuremberg Scientific Name: Echeveria ‘Perle von Nürnberg’
Common Problems: Even more than most succulents, Perle von Nurnberg can easily die from root rot (caused by over-watering). Overly damp soil can also cause fungus. In both of these cases, the leaves will fall off the plant and the stem will be soft or even mushy. To avoid this, make sure that you are letting the soil dry completely between watering.
Megan’s Thoughts: I love the vibrant color of these echeverias, and use them often in my arrangements. In fact, I sometimes have to force myself not to add a Perle von Nurnberg, and instead try something else. If I didn’t, there’d probably be one in just about everything I made. Besides their color, I love how the curve and point of their leaves fits together to make a beautiful pattern. They do need a lot of light to be happy, but in my opinion, they’re worth it!
