Echeveria haagai tolimanensisEcheveria haagai tolimanensis has dark blue curved fleshy leaves. It grows as an upright shrub with many stems, not a rosette.
Conditions it prefers are well drained, and it will put up with quite variable watering; however, it rots quickly if left to sit in water. In fact, the plant in the picture above is actually in a 4" pot, and has been for about two years. It topples easily, so for stability I keep it in the clay pot. Propagation is best from stem cuttings, as the plant will then bush out more from the base. Roots easily from leaf cuttings as well, but slower to produce a good sized plant. Use as a specimen or as the taller background plant in a mixed container. Combines well with shorter rosette forming varieties, or those that trail. Price for 2" pot is $6.00 each. go to Echeveria List A-L page
