Topsy Turvey Echeveria

ChatGPT said:
The Topsy Turvy Echeveria (Echeveria runyonii ‘Topsy Turvy’) is a striking, sculptural succulent that looks like something out of a fantasy garden. 🌿✨
Here’s a quick guide and description:
🌱 Description
Known for its curved, upturned, blue-gray leaves that curl back on themselves, giving a “topsy turvy” or inside-out appearance.
Grows as a compact rosette, about 15–20 cm wide, with leaves that have a powdery, protective coating (farina) giving a soft, silvery look.
In late summer or autumn, it produces tall flower stalks with bright orange or coral bell-shaped blooms that attract pollinators.
🌞 Care Guide
Light: Prefers bright light or full sun for best color and compact growth. Can handle indoor bright windows or outdoor sunny spots.
Water: Water deeply but infrequently — allow soil to dry completely between waterings.
Soil: Needs fast-draining soil, such as a cactus/succulent mix.
Temperature: Thrives in warm, dry conditions; protect from frost below 5°C.
Fertilizer: Use a diluted succulent fertilizer during the growing season (spring–summer).
🌸 Blooming
Blooms on long, arching stems that rise above the rosette. The orange flowers contrast beautifully with the blue foliage.
