Painted Echeveria ‘Benitsukasa’ (Echeveria nodulosa ‘Benitsukasa’)

This showy Painted Echeveria selection from Japan has fleshy, oval leaves with dramatic reddish-purple leaf centers and edges on the green leaves. ‘Benitsukasa’ was selected for its predominance of red coloration compared to the standard Echeveria nodulosa. It forms a central rosette up to 6-8” tall. In late spring and summer, a tall flower stalk emerges. This colorful, showy succulent makes an ideal container plant for home or garden.
