Echeveria runyonii 'Topsy Turvy'
The Upside Down Echeveria
Echeveria runyonii 'Topsy Turvy' is sometimes named as Echeveria glauca. I've also seen it listed as a monstrose variety of Echeveria runyonii. Whatever the name, the lovely alabaster 'upside down' leaves make this a memorable plant, and luckily for beginner growers, easy to cultivate.

Size is ultimately 15cm across, and up to 10cm high, with long flower sprays in the fall up to 20cm tall embellished with lovely peach coloured dangling bell shaped blooms. Preferred conditions are bright light, well drained soil. Propagates easily from leaf cuttings and offsets produced on the original stem when the plant is beheaded. Use as a single specimen plant in a mixed display, or plant several together in a large container.
