Echeveria 'Red Fire' is a captivating succulent that epitomizes the alchemy of nature in its color palette and structural finesse. Compact and perfectly suited for small spaces, this Korean native doesn't exceed 10cm in diameter. Yet, what it lacks in size, it compensates for in a riot of vibrant hues and intricate leaf formations.
The foliage of Echeveria 'Red Fire' is an artistic blend of form and function. Its outer leaves display a rich, deep red, evoking the allure of embers in a dwindling fire. These leaves spiral elegantly around the plant in a rosette that is relatively closed, reminiscent of a protective shield. The tips of these leaves point skyward, curling inward as if to preserve the plant's essence. Morphologically, the leaf underside is convex, adding another layer of textural interest.
Peering into the heart of this rosette, you'll be enchanted by the softer shades that define its inner leaves. These boast a delicate lemon-yellow base, accented with nuances of red on their bodies and enriched with deeper red tips and margins. The contrasting colours create a visual treat that is both compelling and tranquilizing.
Adaptability is another feather in the cap of Echeveria 'Red Fire.' Known for its resilience, this succulent is well-suited to Australia's diverse climatic conditions. Whether you're an experienced horticulturist or a beginner, you'll find that this plant requires minimal care, thriving in well-drained soil and under bright but indirect sunlight.
