Echeveria is a large genus of flowering succulents native to semi-desert areas of Central America, Mexico, and northwestern South America. The plants are evergreen with compact rosettes of fleshy, often brightly colored leaves, and produce flowers on short stalks (cymes). Many species are polycarpic, flowering and setting seed multiple times throughout their lives, and commonly produce numerous offsets known as "hen and chicks."

Thrives in the same full sun, low water conditions as Echeveria
Echeveria is usually grown from offsets rather than seed. Detach a rooted offset from the parent plant and pot it up on its own.
Water: Low · Height: 15 cm · Soil: Well-draining soil; gritty or sandy cactus/succulent mix recommended to prevent root rot
