Echeveria agavoides ‘Lipstick’ is a rosette-forming succulent that forms clumps of individual plants that are around 15 cm tall by 20 to 30 cm wide with apple green leaves with vivid red edges and a terminal spine reminiscent of an Agave (hence the name). The red flowers have a yellow tip and bloom in the spring through early summer. Plant in a well-drained soil in full sun in cooler coastal gardens but will also take considerable shade. It is hardy to about -7° Celsius. It is great in the garden or in larger decorative pots. Sow it all year round and it should start flowering after two years. The maintenance of Echeveria is not difficult. They need a sandy substrate with little organic material.
