Echeveria Desert Jewel is a stunning and aptly named collector's succulent — a true jewel of the desert. She forms a beautiful compact to medium rosette with thick, pointed leaves in rich warm tones of copper-orange to bronze-red with golden-green at the base, intensifying to deeper copper and red with full sun exposure. Her warm, jewel-like colouring glows in sunlight like a precious gemstone — rich, warm and utterly captivating.
Echeveria Desert Jewel is a prized and eye-catching variety that brings warmth, depth and a glowing richness to any succulent collection. She rewards growers with an increasingly vivid and spectacular colour display as sun exposure increases — a plant that truly comes alive in a bright, sunny spot and never fails to draw admiring glances.
