Echeveria agavoides 'Ebony'

Echeveria agavoides 'Ebony' was originally found growing in Mexico by John Trager and Myron Kimnach, it was released in cultivation in the year 2000.

It quickly became one of the most sought-after Echeveria's around and became incredibly popular in Asia, with the price for just one plant costing well over £300.

They are notoriously slow to offset but easily one of the most beautiful and rewarding Echeveria's around, with their pale green-grey leaves set off by their almost black outer leaf margins.

They are stunningly beautiful and structural succulents that rarely encounter any problems with pests or diseases.

They make fantastic houseplants as they are so robust and easy to care for, just place them in a bright/sunny windowsill and water when the soil dries, feed with a liquid seaweed feed in the spring and summer. ‘Ebony’ loves our summers, so growing them outdoors in a pot in full sun will showcase their full potential.

Awarded Plant of the Month for May 2024.
