  •   Echeveria 'Reia Tanaka' is a sea green succulent from the Echeveria genus, native to the mountainous regions of Mexico where it grows naturally among rocky outcrops and well-draining slopes. It is drought tolerant and grows well in conditions that mimic its native rocky habitat.

      The rosette consists of thick, fleshy spoon-shaped leaves arranged in tight spirals that form compact clusters 4-6 inches across. Its leaves are sea green with blue undertones, and the leaf tips often blush pink when exposed to bright light. Each leaf has smooth edges and a waxy surface that gives the whole plant a sculptural appearance.

      'Reia Tanaka' produces tall flower spikes topped with bell-shaped blooms, though flowering frequency depends on adequate light and proper growing conditions. It is completely pet safe and non-toxic to cats and dogs if accidentally nibbled.

      Move it outside for summer months but keep it protected from rain to prevent root rot. You can leave it up to ten days without water. It grows well both indoors and outdoors.

  •   Echeveria 'Reia Tanaka' grows well in bright indirect light and tolerates direct sun exposure throughout most of the day.

      Water it deeply every 10-14 days, allowing soil to dry completely between waterings.

      'Reia Tanaka' grows well in well-draining cactus and succulent potting mix amended with perlite or pumice.

      It prefers temperatures between 60-80°F and can tolerate brief frost down to 25°F.

      'Reia Tanaka' is a slow-growing succulent that needs minimal fertilizer, benefiting from diluted succulent fertilizer monthly during spring only.

      It is hardy in USDA zones 9-11, surviving brief dips to 25°F outdoors. It grows without protection in Florida, California, Texas, Arizona, Hawaii, Louisiana, southern Georgia, coastal South Carolina, southern Nevada, coastal Oregon, southern Alabama, southern Mississippi, and parts of North Carolina. In cooler climates, it grows as an indoor plant year-round or moves outside during summer months with winter protection.
  • Q: Is Echeveria 'Reia Tanaka' safe for pets?
    A: It is non-toxic and safe for cats and dogs.

    Q: What causes yellow leaves on this plant?
    A: Overwatering or poor drainage typically turns leaves yellow on Echeveria 'Reia Tanaka'. Reduce watering frequency and ensure your pot has drainage holes.

    Q: How often should I water 'Reia Tanaka'?
    A: Every 10-14 days during the growing season, letting soil dry completely between waterings. Drop to once monthly in winter.

    Q: Can this plant survive in low light?
    A: 'Reia Tanaka' tolerates lower light but grows best in bright conditions. Insufficient light causes the rosette to stretch and lose its compact form.

    A: Propagate through leaf cuttings or offsets that form around the base. Allow cut surfaces to callus for 24-48 hours before planting in well-draining soil.

    A: 'Reia Tanaka' forms compact rosettes typically reaching 4-6 inches across at maturity and maintains this size for years.

    🌵 For Succulents
    When your package arrives, you may notice a bit of loose soil in the box. This is completely normal during shipping.
    Please remove your plants from their packaging right away and follow the care instructions included with your order. Succulents prefer to dry out between waterings, so only water when the soil is completely dry.
    Succulents are resilient plants and typically recover quickly once they settle into their new environment. Give them a few days to adjust before placing them in direct sunlight, and avoid fertilizing right away.
