| Echeveria are a large and varied genus of succulents in the Crassulaceae family. Echeveria plants prefer full sun to part shade and a well drained soil, try a gritty open mix. Most echeveria do not tolerate frost or damp conditions, so a pot on a sunny porch or verandah can be an ideal postion. Top pots off with small stones for a great clean look (see picture above). Species such as echeveria agavoides are popular, however with such a range of both species and hybrids available it is easy to see why many gardeners develop a collection. |
