Notes

'Red' echeveria (Echeveria 'Red') is a succulent for containers, rock gardens, and accents. 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, average moisture, and sandy or loamy soil. It blooms in spring and summer, and bees and hummingbirds visit the flowers. It is drought tolerant.

Pairs well with Lemon Coral sedum, Lion's tail, and Sedge.
