Echeveria Twilight Plants
![](https://img.bidorbuy.co.za/image/upload/user_images/651/390651_101111092036_Echeveria_Twilight2.JPG)
Echeveria is a large genus of succulents in the Crassulaceae family, native from Mexico to northwestern South America.
The genus is named after the 18th century Mexican botanical artist, Atanasio Echeverría y Godoy.
Many of the species produce numerous offsets, and are commonly known as 'Hen and chicks', which can also refer to other genera such as Sempervivum that are significantly different from Echeveria.
Many Echeveria species are popular as garden plants. They are drought-resistant, although they do better with regular deep watering and fertilizing. Most will tolerate shade and some frost, although hybrid species tend to be less tolerant.
They can be propagated easily by separating offsets, but may also be propagated by leaf cuttings and by seed if they are not hybrids.
Echeverias are polycarpic, meaning that they may flower and set seed many times over the course of their lifetimes.
Echeveria Twilight is a large cultivar with silvery blue leaves and undulating leaf margins. It forms loose open rosettes to 40cm across with long paddle shaped leaves. It grows well in sun or part sun.
Above are photos of one of the actual plants which are in 12.5cm pots.
Plants are sent without pots and soil free. We'll remove the plants from the soil as it not only increases postage but also makes the parcel unstable.
