Description:

The crested shape of this succulent presents in one part of the plant the typical fan arrangement that makes each exemplar absolutely unique, never identical to another and for this reason very appreciated by collectors. This wonderful species is not present in nature, but is a hybrid, obtained in nursery by the union between two exemplars of different genera: Graptopetalum filiferum x Echeveria setosa var. silky. In its normal form, this perennial plant, with its many rosettes, with the time tends to light up, giving rise to abundant ramifications. Its leaves are slightly hairy with ciliated margins, green at the top and shaded with red at the bottom.

Plant care:

It requires a lot of light throughout the year, however, avoid direct sun rays, especially during the hottest hours of the day, as long as they might burn the leaves.

It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 7 °C, for this reason it is recommended to shelter it during the winter period.

Water moderately but only when the soil is completely dry. It is enough to water the plant once a week in spring and summer and suspend watering completely in winter.

The best soil is a well draining one, so to avoid rotting, for example a mixture of peat and pumice so that the water does not stagnate.

They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
