Painted Lady, Baby Echeveria
Vigorous, award-winning Echeveria derenbergii (Painted Lady) is an evergreen succulent with small rosettes, 3 in. wide (7 cm), of fleshy, triangular-shaped, dusky blue-gray leaves adorned with red margins. In late winter to summer, it sends up pink-red stems which bear cup-shaped yellow flowers with painted red tips. The blooms make a bright contrast to the muted palette of leaves. This Echeveria offsets readily and will form a dense carpet of rose-like rosettes over time. A great choice for rock gardens or containers.
