Echeveria "Pollux"

Echeveria are popular low growing ornamental garden plants. Although they are fairly drought tolerant, they will become more spectacular with regular deep watering and fertilising. The hybrids tend to be less tolerant of frost and shade. In temperate climates, most species will lose their lower leaves in winter and become 'leggy' and less attractive.

Echeveria 'Pollux' has glorious rosettes of fleshy, overlapping leaves in a delishtful purplish-grey tone. This succulent plant develops a short stem with age and can produce flowers in spring.
