echeveria

Notes

Echeveria (Echeveria cuspidata) 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. It forms small, compact rosettes of pale blue leaves with purple tips. The leaves develop a pink blush as they age, and red flowers appear in summer.

Pairs well with Coppertone stonecrop, Coccineus mother of thyme, and Pride of madeira.
