Standard pet safety lists do not class echeverias as toxic to cats or dogs, though a chewed plant is a sorry sight and may upset a stomach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eGrowing Miranda Succulent in Australia\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePosition and climate.\u003c\/strong\u003e Sun brings out the best leaf colour. A newly planted rosette should be hardened off over a week or two before it meets full summer sun. Frost free warm temperate, Mediterranean and arid or semi-arid gardens suit it outdoors, as do subtropical ones with some cover from the rain. Frost is the main risk. Where winter nights drop to freezing, keep it in a pot that can come inside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSoil.\u003c\/strong\u003e Free draining soil is a must. In a pot use a gritty cactus mix, and in the ground raise the bed and mulch with gravel, since bark holds moisture against the leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWater and feed.\u003c\/strong\u003e Let the mix dry out between waterings, then soak it and let it drain, always at soil level and never into the centre of the rosette. Through winter a pot may need water only about once a month. Feed once, lightly, in early spring, since rich feeding stretches the rosette.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePruning.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing to prune beyond removing dead lower leaves. Wear gloves when you do, since the leaf points are firm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat to expect when it arrives\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMiranda Succulent comes as tube stock, a young plant in an 80mm deep tube that establishes quickly once potted into gritty mix. Tube plants are small young rosettes and take a season or two to fill out to their full 20cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlants are packed to travel upright and arrive in good order. Take them out of the box straight away, stand them in bright shade for a few days, then shift them gradually into stronger light. Tube stock comes from our grower and is not always available. When the grower has none, the tube shows as sold out on this page, and the notify button emails you the day it is back in stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlants are delivered Australia wide, with delivery from $29.95.
