Echeveria 'Giant Mexican'

Echeveria 'Giant Mexican'An absolute beast of an Echeveria, the Giant Mexican can grow up to a whooping 30cm tall and 40cm wide which certainly stands it in giant stature compared to many other Echeverias. Its big, juicy pinky white leaves grow in a perfectly formed rosette, and are covered in a naturally occurring powdery substance called farina which acts as a protective shield from harsh sun. What also makes this Echeveria intriguing is that it only starts to produce pups

An absolute beast of an Echeveria, the ‘Giant Mexican’ can grow up to a whooping 30cm tall and 40cm wide which certainly stands it in giant stature compared to many other Echeverias. Its big, juicy pinky white leaves grow in a perfectly formed rosette, and are covered in a naturally occurring powdery substance called farina which acts as a protective shield from harsh sun. What also makes this Echeveria intriguing is that it only starts to produce pups once it has become more mature, and only produces a handful at a time, making it even more of a special plant to care for and propagate.
