The Echeveria lila china is a beautiful succulent, belonging to the Crassulaceae family, that finds its origin in Mexico. Over the centuries, this plant has spread across various regions of North and Central America. This variant of Echeveria is also found in other parts of the world, thanks to its popularity among succulent enthusiasts.
Characteristics
The Echeveria lila china is characterised by its marble-like, thick leaves that grow in a rosette pattern. These leaves have a striking lilac colour with shades of grey and green. The plant has the ability to form smaller side rosettes, giving the plant its distinctive lush appearance. Furthermore, the Echeveria lila china produces flowers on long stems from spring to early summer, which provide a striking contrast to the lilac leaves.
Care
The Echeveria lila china requires relatively little care. It thrives best in well-drained soil and has a strong preference for light, sunny locations. In the summer, it is advised to water the plant moderately, while in the winter almost no water is needed. In general, it is important to ensure that the soil dries out completely between watering to prevent root rot.
