As the most popular genus for cultivated succulents; Echeveria is a plant rife with amazing qualities. Though showy, large, colorful hybrids take the stage in most cases; sometimes a pure species like Echeveria
pulvinata can shine through. Rock-growers from Mexico, this species especially provides an easy growing experience and little to be desired. Fuzzy, arrow-like leaves sun stress to a darling blush when exposed to higher light conditions, and bright red-yellow flowers emerge on tall, vibrant stalks once a year. For indoor growth, Echeveria should be kept in a soil mix that drains efficiently and quickly, but also to be treated with frequent watering. Echeveria
pulvinata, like most Echeveria, can be propagated with nothing more than a pulled leaf; which makes one small plant turn into a thriving population quite quickly under the right conditions; which can be provided on nothing more than a well-lit windowsill.
