About Echeveria Purpusorum
Echeveria Purpusorum is a succulent of the Crassulaceae family, native to Mexico and Central America. It stands out for perfectly symmetrical and structured rosettes, a peculiarity that has fascinated botanists and enthusiasts for generations.
Your Echeveria Purpusorum has been grown at Succulentae, a specialized nursery in Almería, under real Mediterranean arid conditions — more resilient and better adapted than artificial greenhouse plants. The result: more compact, better colored and more resilient plants than those grown in artificial greenhouses.
