The invention discloses a method for cultivating echeveria. The method comprises the following steps of selecting leaves of a houseleek
succulent plant at the ambient temperature of 15-25DEG C, separating the leaves from a
parent body at leaf stalks, dipping the leaves in
carbendazim wettable powder solution for 2 to 3 seconds, and placing the leaves in a shady and cool place for 6 to 12 hours; mixing
bone meal, gardening soil, pine needle and
river sand, spreading out the mixture, and watering thoroughly; flatly placing the leaves on the surface of the mixed soil, placing in a shady, cool and ventilated place, germinating new leaves after 1 to 3 weeks, moving the houseleek
succulent plant to an outdoor place, and cultivating the
plant under the sun for 2 to 4 weeks; keeping the temperature in a range of 5-10DEG C at night and cultivating the
plant under the sun in
daytime. The mixture of the
bone meal, the gardening soil, the pine needle and the
river sand serves as a leaf
cutting medium, so that the
germination rate of the leaves is improved and reaches to more than 98 percent, sources are rich and the cost is low; a mode of cultivation in
daytime in an exposing way and planting at low temperature at night is selected, so that
temperature difference is enlarged, succulent leaves are rendered with color, and the attractiveness of the leaves is improved.
