Notes

'Cupid' echeveria (Echeveria 'Cupid') is a succulent for containers, rock gardens, and houseplant collections. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 9 and warmer, down to about 20°F (-7°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes full sun and dry soil. Its long, narrow leaves have diamond-shaped tips with a small dimple and show shades of purple, pink, and tan. Red flowers appear from early to late summer.

Pairs well with Coppertone stonecrop, Heavy Metal switchgrass, and Arum.
