Notes
Prolific echeveria (Echeveria prolifica) is a succulent for containers, ground cover, and low maintenance gardens. 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 or part sun and dry, sandy or loamy soil. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. This drought tolerant evergreen attracts bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds.
Pairs well with Paddle plant, Stonecrop, and Narrow-leaf chalksticks.
