Regular price $3.50This slow growing Echeveria rosette is covered in small "hairs". It shoots out yellow and red blossoms in the Spring. Grows up to 12" wide.
Plants in this genus prefer full sun to partial shade depending on desired coloration - full sun tends to bring out red or pink hues. However, too much direct afternoon sun can burn foliage. Leaves can be waxy or hairy, or even glaucate or farinose. Flowers appear in large inflorescences of bright yellow, orange, or red flowers. Echeveria can generally be propagated from leaf cuttings or offsets, but can also be grown from stem cuttings and seed.
We always do our best to ship the largest and healthiest succulents we have available. But size and color may vary based on multiple factors including time of year, growing temps, length of days, and their growing seasons. Succulents generally slow down and almost stop growing during the coldest months of the year, but come spring and summer you can often see growth in just days.
If looking for exact Haworthias, Gasterias and Aloes, please see those pages specifically.
