Here are the best conditions to have when caring for this succulent. While it is technically possible to successfully grow a succulent in a container without a drainage hole, it's usually discouraged as you have to be incredibly precise about your watering habits. You should not expose the seed to direct sun. After putting the seed in the soil, don't cover it. A succulent's soil should never contain high amounts of water retaining elements such as clay and peat moss. Tap water doesn't contain any chemicals, salts, or other harmful substances. Echeveria Purpusorum grows in Southern Mexico.
