Echeveria Setosa Oteroii is a captivating and distinctive true species Echeveria that immediately draws the eye with her unusual, scoop-shaped leaves and striking two-tone colouring. She displays fresh light green on the upper leaf surface with a beautiful flush of rich red on the underside — a hidden surprise of colour that reveals itself as her leaves curl and catch the light.
Her uniquely shaped, concave leaves are arranged in a neat, compact rosette that is both architectural and charming — the red undersides glowing warmly against the soft green tops to create a dynamic, ever-changing colour display. Unusual, beautiful and genuinely collectible — Echeveria Setosa Oteroii is a true species gem that brings extraordinary character and botanical intrigue to any succulent collection!
