Descripción
🌱 Morphology
A very eye-catching horticultural cultivar that forms a compact and well-defined rosette of fleshy leaves, wide at the base and tapering to a point. The coloration combines grayish-green tones with intense shades of pink, red, burgundy, and purple, especially on the edges and tips when it receives plenty of light. The contrast between the lighter center of the rosette and the intensely colored outer leaves gives it the appearance of a small, glowing flower. There is insufficient reliable information about its genealogy.
🌍 Distribution, habitat, and family
A horticultural cultivar with no natural distribution or native wild habitat. It belongs to the Crassulaceae family. As it is a cultivar of undocumented origin, it is not assigned to an infragenus series.
❄️ Temperature
USDA 9b. Tolerates minimum temperatures of up to −2 ºC, provided the substrate remains dry and exposure to cold is brief.
☀️ Lighting
Full sun, with a recommended PAR DLI of 20–30 mol/m²/day. Intense lighting promotes a compact rosette and enhances the red, pink, and purple tones. During the extreme heat episodes of the Madrid summer, it may benefit from light protection during the middle of the day.
💧 Growth cycle and watering
Winter dormancy. Growth is concentrated mainly during the seasons with moderate temperatures. Water thoroughly and allow the substrate to dry out completely before watering again. During winter, when temperatures and radiation are lower, watering is spaced out considerably.
🌸 Flowering
Flowers appear on tall flower stalks, with the characteristic tubular flowers of Echeveria, generally in reddish or pink tones with a yellowish interior. No reliable documentation has been found regarding the age at first flowering, the number of flowerings within the same season, or its self-fertility.
🌿 Nutrition
During the active growth period, Desert CHOICE® Succulents is recommended, applied after watering.
This is an inimitable xerophyte grown in Madrid in a high-tech square pot with a substrate enriched with mycorrhizal fungi and biofungicides.
