Caring for the Echeveria 'Mars' is relatively easy. A mixture of cactus and succulent soil is suitable as a substrate.

Generally, this succulent tolerates too little water rather than too much. Fertilizing is possible once a month, or every four weeks.
This succulent's light requirement is met in a sunny location. This means a south-facing window with direct sunlight is best. The optimal temperature is between 20°C and 30°C.

Furthermore, fertilizing is stopped and watering is reduced. However, this succulent is not suitable for the garden.
This succulent can be propagated by leaf and stem cuttings. Echeverias are generally non-toxic, but we cannot guarantee their suitability for animals.
