Description
ROOTLESS are succulents. And the name says it all: a ROOTLESS succulent has no roots. The plant consists of only a rosette. In this heart of leaves, the moisture is stored. So you never give a ROOTLESS too much or too little water!
ROOTLESS succulents are grown in a nursery pot and are allowed to grow to the right size. When the rosette of the plant is large enough, it is cut loose from the potting soil. A ROOTLESS can be an Echeveria, Aloe and Gasteria. Other names for ROOTLESS are cutting succulent, cut plant, cut echeveria and cut succulent.

How does a ROOTLESS survive?
A succulent has the ability to buffer moisture in both roots, stems and leaves. This way the plant survives dry periods. They are real survivors.
In some succulents the water reserve is only in the leaf. This applies to the Echeveria for example. The leaf is thick and tense because of the leaf juices.
The plant first uses the lower leaves for moisture. This way the plant can survive for months. So you can enjoy ROOTLESS for a long time without giving extra water!
Where does an Echeveria originally come from?
Echeveria belongs to the family of Crassulaceae, just like the Crassula, Pachyphytum and Pachyveria. Echeverias grow in the northeast of Mexico. An area with mainly deserts and arid hilly landscapes. Here the Echeveria grows against a rocky surface.
An Echeveria has a rosette of fleshy leaves and a huge diversity of colours. The colours can vary from deep green to reddish. There are species with woolly hairy leaves and species that are completely smooth. It is a fantastic succulent with many possibilities.
