Sedeveria 'Letizia' is an intergeneric hybrid succulent thought to have originated from a cross between Sedum cuspidatum and Echeveria setosa var. ciliata, and was named in honor of Letizia Alleruzzo. It is a slow-growing species from western Chiapas and eastern Oaxaca with red-tinged green leaves that rise up on highly textured stems, while the pollen parent, Echeveria setosa var. ciliata, is a ground-hugging plant from Oaxaca with short stems and flat rosettes of red-edged leaves.
Sedeveria 'Letizia' is sure to catch the eye with its stunning colors and unique features. This small succulent typically grows up to 20 cm tall and forms a cluster of stems that branch out from the base. At the end of each stem is a rosette of deltoid leaves that can grow up to 6 cm in diameter.
The leaves of Sedeveria 'Letizia' are a vibrant apple green with fine hairs along the margins and keel. Under times of stress, such as limited water and feeding or full sun exposure, the margins of the leaves turn a bold scarlet-red, adding a dramatic pop of color to any garden or succulent arrangement.
In the spring, Sedeveria 'Letizia' produces multiple inflorescences that rise above the rosettes and bear white flowers in scorpioid clusters. The flowers are small, delicate, and add a beautiful touch to the already stunning succulent.
Sedeveria 'Letizia' is a hardy plant that can thrive in a range of conditions. It grows best in full coastal sun to light shade in a well-drained soil and only needs occasional irrigation. This plant is perfect for a small choice spot in a rock or succulent garden, or as a container plant.
