Echeveria Lilacina Monstrose

Echeveria Lilacina Monstrose, also known as the Ghost Echeveria or Mexican Hens and Chicks, is a captivating and sought-after succulent prized for its unique and unusual form. Unlike its more symmetrical counterpart, Echeveria lilacina, this monstrose variety exhibits a fascinatingly distorted and unpredictable growth pattern.

Key features of Echeveria Lilacina Monstrose:

• Distinctive Form: The leaves grow in a tightly packed rosette but often twist, curl, and stack in unexpected ways, creating a mesmerizing sculptural effect.  

• Ghostly Hue: The leaves are typically a silvery-grey or bluish-grey color, with a powdery coating that adds to its ethereal, ghost-like appearance.  

• Rare and Coveted: Due to its unusual growth habit, Echeveria Lilacina Monstrose is a prized addition to any succulent collection and highly sought-after by enthusiasts.  

Growing conditions:

• Sunlight: Requires bright, indirect sunlight to maintain its unique form and color.  

• Soil: Thrives in well-draining soil mixes specifically formulated for succulents and cacti.  

• Water: Water moderately during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Reduce watering during the winter dormancy period.

Overall, Echeveria Lilacina Monstrose is a captivating and unique succulent that adds a touch of intrigue and artistry to any collection. Its sculptural form and ghostly hue make it a truly mesmerizing addition to any succulent enthusiast's collection.

The succulent plant housed in the red pot comes in a 130mm diameter container. While the image provides a representative depiction of what you will receive, but may vary slightly because no two succulents are the same.
