How to prune echeveria pulidonis

Dead leaves any time; flower stalks after blooming; pup removal in spring. Peel away dried basal leaves gently by hand. Cut bloom spikes at the base once flowers are spent. Remove offsets with a clean knife or by hand once they are large enough to have some roots, then allow to callous before potting.

Rarely — light tidying a few times per year. Echeveria pulidonis is a tidy, slow-growing rosette succulent with distinctive red-edged leaves. It seldom needs pruning. Remove dead lower leaves as they dry out and cut spent flower spikes after blooming. Pups that form at the base can be removed and potted separately if a single rosette form is preferred.
