Good idea for a thread. Echies deserve their own appreciation space
I only have three echies. This is more to do with my environment than by choice . I cannot for the most part give them enough light even in my best windows. I do OK in the summer , but its the spring /fall seasons where the plant still want to grow and light levels here are frequently not enough. I could have tried artificial light , but my interest in aloes was accelerating anyway ( they seem to do OK) so i have filled my windows mostly with these... But If I ever get that greenhouse...
Anyway here are my three that are left. I think the affins might struggle this year (its a new plant)
Echeveria 'Hercules'
If i had the space and light I would have 'compton carousel' and 'cante' in an instant
