Introducing the Echeveria 'Topsy Turvy', which is a stunning succulent that belongs to the genus Echeveria. This Echeveria topsy-turvy plant is well-known among succulent lovers for its unique rosette shape, with leaves that curl upwards and twist inwards, giving it a whimsical and "topsy turvy" appearance.

Myron Kimnack, former director of the Huntington Botanical Gardens, named Echeveria runyonii 'Topsy Turvy', a popular cultivar originating from a stable monstrose form of the Echeveria runyonii. 


The leaves of your topsy-turvy echeveria are fleshy and spoon-shaped, with a beautiful grey-green color that can sometimes have a hint of pink or purple on the edges.

The leaves also have a powdery coating called farina, which adds to their charm.

The Echeveria topsy turvy produces numerous new rosettes at its base and doesn't grow a tall stem like some cultivars, instead developing into a nice clump.

This topsy-turvy plant is a relatively compact species, with rosettes that can reach about 7.2 inches in diameter.

The Echeveria topsy turvy flowers are usually bell-shaped and can be bright orange, pink, coral, or yellow flowers in late summer or early fall. When the topsy-turvy succulent is mature and conditions are right, you might be lucky enough to see these delightful flowers emerge from the center of the rosette. 

When it comes to Echeveria topsy turvy care, it prefers full sun to partial shade. It can tolerate some direct sunlight, but too much intense sunlight can lead to sunburn and damage the leaves. 

As for watering, it's important to follow the "soak and dry" method.  Allow the soil to completely dry out between occasional watering to prevent overwatering and root rot. Use our Go to soil cactus mix blend 1 gal 4 qt cacti succulent dirt compost growing mediaspecialized succulent potting mix that contains 5 natural substrates and mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your topsy-turvy succulent thrive. 

If growing indoors, your Echeveria topsy turvy thrives in warm conditions. It prefers temperatures between 65-85°F during the day and slightly cooler temperatures at night. You can grow your Echeveria topsy turvy outdoors in USDA zones 9–11. It is not cold hardy, so it's best to protect it from frost and freezing temperatures, as prolonged exposure to extreme cold can damage the Echeveria plant.

If you're growing it outdoors, it's important to take precautions during cold weather. You can bring it indoors or provide some protection, such as by covering it or moving it to a sheltered area.  

The Echeveria topsy turvy is a fantastic choice for rock gardens, green roofs, and containers. This plant produces offsets readily, which means it will quickly form a dense carpet of frosty green foliage over time. Its cascading growth habit adds a touch of whimsy and beauty to any landscape or container arrangement.

When it comes to humidity, Echeveria 'Topsy Turvy' is adaptable and can tolerate average indoor humidity levels. It doesn't require any specific humidity adjustments, making it a great choice for various environments. 

The Echeveria topsy turvy is a fast-growing topsy turvy succulent that can produce offsets or "pups" that can be separated and propagated to grow new topsy turvy Echeveria runyonii plants. Many Echeverias can be propagated easily through leaf cuttings, with some species being more effective from seeds or stem cuttings.  

Additionally, Topsy Turvy succulents are generally considered non-toxic to humans and pets. So you can enjoy their unique beauty without worrying about any harmful effects. 

Overall, this Echeveria topsy-turvy is a great ground cover for rock gardens and even green roofs.With the help of topsy turvy succulent plants you'll start to spend less time maintaining your garden and more time taking in its beauty!

Great for Hawaii!
Style: SPF 50, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I spent hours trying to find a sunscreen that was “reef safe” since I was going to be spending a lot of time near corals and this was the best one I found. It doesn’t have any of the 3 ‘O’ ingredients that are known to damage reefs. And the zinc is non nano as well. Sunscreen goes on easily. One of the better mineral sunscreens I’ve tried, this one actually smooths out like lotion and feels hydrating. Only leaves a slight pinkish hue, but that is inevitable with mineral sunscreens (that’s literally how they work in reflecting the sun). I could feel it on even in the ocean so I get protected, but still reapplied almost every 2 hours. No burns! I didn’t use it on my face but my partner did and it never stung his eyes nor caused any breakouts!

Stick format is thick and difficult to rub in moderate climates
Style: SPF 50, Size: 1 count (Pack of 1)
I wanted to like it because the small stick format seemed very convenient to keep in my bag for emergency sunscreen reapplication with no chance of leaks. But I think I have learned my lesson about stick sunscreen - in order to hold together in a stick, it has to have a thick and chalky consistency. Which makes it hard to apply and hard to rub in. It's so thick that if I rub the stick over my entire face it feels like I'm applying way too much with a super heavy white cast, and if I dab here and there and try to spread it around, it's so thick it doesn't feel like it spreads into good coverage. The scent is fine. Update: I have found a specific use case for this - in extreme UV conditions like the equatorial tropics in midsummer, it's a good base layer under a more liquid mineral sunscreen, to add extra protection to the most exposed skin, like tops of shoulders, chest, nose and top of forehead. The thickness makes it protect better. It also softens a little and rubs in better in hot temps.

Needs to be warmed, but works great for quick face re-application
Style: SPF 50, Size: 1 count (Pack of 1)
I love mineral sunscreen, it really works the best. But I also do not love mineral sunscreen because it's hard to apply. I don't think it matters what you do, they're just always difficult to apply and always leaving the white. This one isn't much different. I'm a scuba diver and my face sunscreen is washed off quickly doing multiple dives. I also get a weird "mask sunburn" if I don't reapply... but since I'm a diver I can't bring myself to buy or wear sunscreen that's not reef safe into the ocean. I was unsure if this would work because it's pretty solid. I threw it in my bag and once the sun warmed it up a little, I was able to apply it fairly easily between dives. I don't think it works unless it's warmed a bit first, but I like it for this purpose.

I Wanted to Like It
Style: SPF 50, Size: 1 count (Pack of 1)
I really wanted to like it because of the great reviews it gets with backpackers and generally with people that don't like "greasy hands syndrome" after applying sunscreen. But after using a stick I found that it's just not that good. The good: small, lightweight container. Not greasy. Good protection, I was in the sun all day hiking multiple days straight and only put on sunscreen twice per day and I didn't have any burning... and I burn easily. The bad: Value: the $12.53 sunscreen container only lasted about 8 days. And that was just my arms, neck, and half my face since I wore a shirt and long pants and a wide brim hat every day when hiking. I would expect this amount of sunscreen to last a lot longer than that on such a limited area. I'm not a big person either. Application, chafing: it's the opposite of greasy, almost chalky. You use the stick to apply to your skin in stripes, then you have to "blend it in" by rubbing with the backs of your hands so your palms don't get chalky. Since the stick is so dry this requires a fair amount of force and it chafes as you rub it around. When your skin a bit sandy it hurts. Application, crumbling: on a chilly but sunny morning, about 45 F, I applied sunscreen and small chunks of the stick crumbled off. I watched precious chunks of the already overpriced sunscreen drop to the ground. Residue: while it's not greasy, it's physical sunblock so it gives your skin the characteristic whitish sparkle. That's to be expected. But what I didn't foresee is it will rub off on anything your skin touches. My gear had white chalk-like marks (technically titania powder?) on my shirt collars, backpack straps, sunglasses, and a few other high-touch items. Overall I think it's a neat idea. I'm not overly disappointed with my purchase. But for $12.50 I expect sunscreen to be easier to apply and for the container to last longer than about 8 days. I can't burn $50/month in the summer months when a single container of chemical sunscreen will do the job. Pro tip: you can buy food-safe 3 oz TSA travel containers. Load one of those up with chemical sunscreen and you have something that beats this in every way except for the greasiness, which you can mitigate by picking a lower SPF sunscreen (the 30 SPF you wear is infinitely better than the 50 SPF you skip!).
