Nursery contributed plant descriptions

We must confess, we do not know much about this mysterious Echeveria. We do not even think this name is correct, but this is the name we were given when we received this clone. It is beautiful with large fleshy pink leaves and an overall large appearance. Some summer water with drier conditions in winter. Full sun is best. Frost hardiness unknown- likely USDA 9b. Great container houseplant.
