Description

This succulent slowly creates symmetrical rosettes 10" across with light gray colored, thick leaves with a point. During spring, red stems emerge from the leaves with coral colored flowers, 6" high. This plant tolerates full to part sun with well draining soil. It does not tolerate standing water. This plant is drought tolerant once it's established. It does not off set like other Echeverias so it's a great plant for containers.
