Description

Graptoveria 'Fred Ives': Echeveria hybrid. One of the easier plants to grow, appears to be forgiving. Good multiplier and soon makes a nice mat. Each plant grows to well over 12" in diameter. Flowers appear in the summer on long arching stems with an orange-pink flower. Blue-grey with shades of pink. They grow outdoors in frost free areas. Cold climates must bring them indoors. Very attractive plant. Tender soft succulent - will not tolerate frost.

Water Saving Tip:

Change spray sprinklers to low-flow bubbler or drip systems.

Shrubs and trees are ideal candidates for this type of irrigation because the water is applied directly to the root zones.
