Description,
Notes
|
A named cultivar of Echeveria subrigida
with the same cold tolerance, that here at the nursery
cannot be distinguished from the former in container stock.
We are presently testing in the ground to see if any differences
will arise. Perfect as a "conversation piece" patio plant,
or directly in the ground with adequate drainage; Drought
and deer resistant.
