Echeveria agavoides Amestro is a delightful, slow-growing succulent that is a species native to Mexico. This stemless succulent forms a dense, solitary rosette that is made up of thick, fleshy, triangular-shaped leaves, with a sharp spine at the end. The leaves range in color from green to reddish-brown, with the very center of the leaves remaining green. As the plant matures, the outer edges of the leaves turn a deep red/orange with deeper red tips, making for a striking contrast.
One of the most attractive aspects of Echeveria agavoides Amestro is the chubby, short leaves that form a perfect rosette. The leaves are quite thick, and it can be quite surprising how plump they can become. This plant is highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts due to its striking appearance and ease of care.
As with other Echeveria varieties, this succulent can be propagated from leaves, but it is not a quick or easy process, making it quite rare. However, Echeveria agavoides Amestro can offset as it matures, making it a great addition to any collection.
