Echeveria agavoides is an attractive succulent, forming rosettes of triangular, fleshy, evergreen leaves in pale green with red margins. In spring and early summer, red, lantern-shaped flowers with yellow tips appear on tall stems.

For best results grow Echeveria agavoides in a well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. It's perfect for growing in gravel gardens and sunny borders, but is best suited to growing in containers, which you can move indoors in autumn to overwinter.
