Echeveria 'Crispate Beauty'

This alien looking Echeveria is a very unusual succulent due to its chunky and frilly foliage.

The thick farina gives it a very grey almost moonlike colour, very similar to its mother plant Echeveria lilacina. This brilliant plant will amaze anyone, succulent fanatic or not. It will do well planted by itself in a pot or as a main feature plant in an arrangement. Strangely, the orange flower petals are also frilly. These appear in May.
