Echeveria 'Blue Metal', also known as Echeveria 'Sundown', is a striking succulent that forms rosettes of colorful rounded leaves with a pointed tip. The rosettes grow up to 8 inches (20 cm) in diameter. The thick fleshy leaves vary in color from orange-brown and green during the cooler months to purple and blue in summer. Flowers are red, bell-shaped, and appear clustered at the end of tall stalks in late winter and summer. 'Blue Metal' prefers full sun to partial shade. If you are moving your plant outside in the spring, do it gradually. The intense afternoon sun can cause sunburn. During the winter, when your E. 'Blue Metal' is inside, put it near the brightest window in your home. It will stretch if it does not have enough sunlight. Provide moderate amounts of water from spring to fall. The "soak and dry" method is the preferred schedule for watering E. 'Blue Metal'. Water your plant just enough to keep it from shriveling during the winter months.
