White dumpling skin, red dumpling skin, what is the difference?
Let's talk about white dumpling skin, red dumpling skin, the differences and briefly describe the differences between the cultivation of white and red dumpling skin plants. Next, the editor will introduce.
Following the popularity of dumpling skin as a succulent, the Chinese market has introduced white dumpling skin, which is completely different from the traditional red dumpling skin. They are different species, have different appearances, and there is also a significant price difference. The traditional red dumpling skin, when first launched, was priced at no more than 100 yuan, usually around 50-60 yuan. The price of white dumpling skin is relatively higher compared to red dumpling skin.
The two succulents, although both called dumpling skin, do have a certain degree of visual distinction. The traditional red dumpling skin has a relatively uniform specification, while the currently popular white dumpling skin has irregular growth specifications, with the leaf wrinkles being more chaotic. They do not have high ornamental value in the seedling stage and only look more beautiful when they grow to over 10 centimeters.
What is the difference between red dumpling skin and white dumpling skin?
The biggest difference is in price and color. The price of white dumpling skin is very high, with an average market selling price of about 150 to 200 yuan, which is still relatively high, especially among the succulents of the Crassula family. This price is considered high and is likely to be maintained for about two years.
The red dumpling skin is green when not in good condition, and the leaves turn dark red when in good condition. The white dumpling skin remains unchanged, starting from a light color in the seedling stage, and becomes whiter and more beautiful as it grows. Therefore, white dumpling skin is also called the ballerina, a name that exudes an ethereal feel.
White dumpling skin, red dumpling skin, what is the difference?
The red dumpling skin was also very expensive when it was first launched and was very popular. However, with the emergence of new varieties, old varieties will gradually fade out of the market, and price reduction is an inevitable result. Moreover, Crassula succulents are easy to propagate, and high-quality succulent varieties are always popular in the market, with prices likely to remain high.
You can understand it this way: white dumpling skin is an upgraded version of red dumpling skin. From this year onwards to the next 2-3 years, the price of white dumpling skin will remain at a peak. After about two years, the price will continue to fall, just like the traditional red dumpling skin, which will also fall to around 20-30 yuan per plant.
High-quality succulent varieties will gradually decrease in popularity over time, to be replaced by new varieties, just like the red dumpling skin was replaced by the white dumpling skin, and the price will continue to fall until it gradually fades out of the market. For friends who enjoy growing succulents, I recommend choosing white dumpling skin. Although the price is high, it can be propagated by oneself, and the seedlings can be sold again.
Chasing hot trends in succulent cultivation is not wrong, but while doing so, it is better to propagate some yourself, which is more conducive to later sales and maintaining a continuous cash flow.
The above sharing about the differences between white and red dumpling skin and a specific introduction to their differences aims to bring some floral knowledge to green plant enthusiasts.
