Nice Landscape Echeveria - lost ID

#1

Post by Stone Jaguar »

There are a boatload of very good echeverias for dry NorCal landscapes, but this species (or hybrid?) has turned out be exceptionally well-adapted to the local climate. Almost flawless groups following some notably extreme temperatures this year, fully exposed to the sky. This particular clone came out of TC, but I can't remember the name. Would like an ID to put in some more. Larger rosettes shown are ~11"/28 cm. Non-offsetting for now. Color in these photos more cante-like than in life; slight gray-tan overtones in person.

Thanks, Geoff. Yes, I did buy a number of E lilacina and your description in the gallery matches perfectly.

I think the plants in the first and second pic are Echeveria "Pollux" , it is a lixlacina hybrid but much more bigger, and the third pic looks like a normal lilacina
