Echeveria Pollux is a graceful and luminous collector's hybrid named after the brightest star in the Gemini constellation — and she truly lives up to her celestial name! She forms a neat, symmetrical rosette of broad, smooth, spoon-shaped leaves in soft blue-green to silvery-grey, coated in a delicate powdery farina that gives her a cool, luminous and almost ethereal quality.
Her leaf edges and tips blush softly to pink and lilac with increased sun exposure, adding a romantic finishing touch to her already stunning silvery form. Graceful, refined and quietly breathtaking — she is a star in every sense of the word and an absolute must-have for any serious succulent collector!
