Echeveria ‘Dorothy’
Echeveria ‘Dorothy’ is a charming frilly hybrid succulent featuring lime-green, ruffled leaves edged with striking red or rose margins. As the rosette matures, the foliage can develop beautiful coral-blue and candy-pink tones, creating an ever-changing display of colour throughout the year. Its sculptural form and colourful foliage make it a standout addition to any succulent collection.
Perfect for sunny windowsills, bright conservatories, or contemporary indoor displays, it thrives where it receives plenty of natural light. Whether grown as a single specimen or allowed to form a cluster of rosettes over time, it adds elegant shape and vibrant colour with very little maintenance.
