Description
Echeveria ‘Chocolate’ is a lovely cultivar similar to Echeveria ‘Black Prince’.
It is one of the darkest varieties we’ve come across at the nursery. It features thick fleshy leaves and a leaf point much like the Echeveria affinis. A very tight and compact plant which will flower in the spring.
Environment
Full sun to filtered shade. Average Water Needs; Water regularly; do not over water.
As with all succulents, the most dangerous situation is too much water- they should never be allowed to sit in water under any circumstances.
These decorative little plants can be grown in interesting containers such as tea cups and even miniature baby shoes. Make sure the container had adequate drainage. If it doesn't, it might be a good idea to pop the plant out of its container and add a layer of gravel to the bottom to reduce the wicking action of the soil above.
Landscape Use
Suitable for Container, Rock Garden & Xeriscaping
