Echeveria 'Affinis'

Echeveria 'Affinis' is a striking variety with dark purplish-green, near-black foliage.  This succulent creates instant drama and pairs beautifully with silver-leaved varieties for eye-catching contrast. In summer, tall stems rise above the fleshy rosettes, carrying clusters of vivid red, bell-shaped flowers.Echeveria plants are nature’s little works of art - their fleshy leaves forming perfect geometric patterns in a striking range of colours. Exceptionally easy to grow, these drought tolerant succulents thrive on neglect, needing little more than bright light and occasional watering. These dinky plants fit perfectly on shelves, windowsills or tables and can be kept indoors all year as stylish houseplants. They are perfect for creating collections, with their array of contrasting colours and forms combining into striking displays.During the summer months, these tender succulents also look great set out on a sunny patio, either as individual specimens or planted up into larger shallow troughs, before moving them indoors to overwinter. As plants mature, they naturally produce small offsets that gradually form larger clumps. These can also be detached from the parent to grow into new plants, making propagation easy and rewarding. Ultimate height: 15cm (6in). Ultimate spread: 20cm (8in).
