    Minutes 7:26 white variegated stripes is called silk variegation. I haven’t seen a silk variegated Echeveria blood maria but I have a silk variegated graptoveria ghost, silk variegated markus aka maialen, silk variegated prolifica and a couple of newer korean hybrids 🪷

    great video!!! love the crested u featured. I think i have been very lucky with my bear paws varigated as my aussie state has had several -3.5 nights in a row and then continued to have very cold nights. Its my most expensive plant and i can't believe it hasn't died or struggled. Other plants have had their normal winter needing powdery mildew treatment but the bear paw has somehow coasted through. Have lost almost every Kalanchoe this winter though. Very sad. Things are under cover but just froze in the night and stayed frozen before dying. I have no idea how the bear paw is ok

      Ohh, that is so great the BP pulled through and so very interesting! Maybe the tiny hairs offer some kind of protection. I think the regular tomentosa tolerates frost quite well (down to -5) but the variegated can be a bit of a drama queen😅. Sorry to hear about the Kalanchoes 😔 Frost can be such a pain in the backside

      @@SucculentGrowingTips yes the bear paw is strangely doing well despite everyone i know or watch being open about how difficult they are. My non variegated BP has been snacked on by the possums as well but has fortunately kept going. Would be ironic to get to summer and the bear paws all decide its too hot or something lol

    How is the bear's paw variegated?Is it the red tips?
    I bought one from an etsy seller in Portugal recently, and I had no idea that they were rare other than knowing that I har never seen one before.

      There's 3 varieties of bears paw (i've compared them in another video- link below) The original Cotyledon tomentosa, then white/cream variegated which is in this video and a yellow variegated. It's best if you skim through the vid to see the difference side by side 🙂 The yellow and cream are more difficult to find than the original tomentosa.
