Echeveria 'Red Absinthe', a striking hybrid originating from Echeveria cuspidata var. zaragozae and Echeveria brandtii, captivates with its unique foliage. This robust variety boasts chunkier and slightly wider leaves than its Echeveria cuspidata parent, presenting a lush green canvas accentuated by distinct black tips. Under the stress of full to partial sunlight, the leaves undergo a stunning transformation, adopting a vibrant pink to red hue, adding a splash of color to any succulent collection.
Adapted to thrive in the semi-desert regions of Central America, Mexico, and northwestern South America, Echeveria 'Red Absinthe' is both hardy and low-maintenance, making it an ideal choice for succulent enthusiasts of all levels. Its ability to produce numerous offsets, colloquially known as "hen and chicks", allows for easy propagation and the joy of watching a single plant develop into a flourishing succulent cluster.
Echeverias play an essential role in the environment, serving as host plants for certain butterfly species, thereby contributing to biodiversity.
