Echeveria chihuahuaensis is a small, evergreen Mexican succulent that forms tight blue-green rosettes about 10 cm across, with pinkish leaf edges and small yellow flowers on stems up to about 25 cm. The key to growing it is bright light, very well-drained soil and little water.
Echeveria chihuahuaensis, sometimes Echeveria chihuahuensis, is a species of perennial flowering plant in the family Crassulaceae. It is native to Mexico. It is a diploid species, with a chromosome count of 50.
This species has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
They are able to survive temperatures as low as -3.9°C to 10°C. They should be grown in well-drained soil under full sun and not left in sitting water as this may cause the plant to rot. Dead leaves should also be removed to prevent infestation by mealy bugs.
