Sedeveria 'Letizia' Crest is a captivating variant of the conventional Sedeveria 'Letizia', an intergeneric hybrid born from the cross-pollination of Sedum cuspidatum and Echeveria setosa var. ciliata. What sets this splendid succulent apart is its distinctive crested form, a rare spectacle of nature's whimsy, resulting from an anomaly in its apical meristem - the plant's growth centre.
The Crest variant weaves an enchanting tapestry of curved and twisted shapes, a striking departure from the single rosette of its regular form. The result of this unique growth pattern is an intricate architecture of clustered, deltoid leaves, each adorned with fine hairs, and spanning up to 20 cm in height.
One of the most captivating characteristics of the Sedeveria 'Letizia' Crest is its remarkable colour shifts. Throughout the year, this succulent dons a multitude of hues, transforming from a vibrant green to a fiery reddish-orange and even deep red. These changes are particularly noticeable under stress conditions such as water and nutrient limitations, demonstrating the plant's resilience and adaptability.
Without a doubt, Sedeveria 'Letizia' Crest is a breathtaking addition to any plant collection. Its compelling form coupled with its impressive colour transitions ensures it is an unforgettable botanical spectacle. This unique succulent is a testament to nature's boundless creativity, inviting you to explore its grandeur as it unfolds one leaf at a time.
