Echeveria agavoides ‘Mont’ features spade-shaped, fleshy succulent leaves of deep burgundy red to maroon purple growing in a rosette. Prolonged sun exposure, as well as cooler weather, will intensify the color. Exhibits bronzy pink tones at other times of the year. Bell-shaped flowers appear on tall stems in summer. A small, slow-growing, low maintenance plant. Provide a well-drained soil away from reflected heat. Once established, water infrequently during the hot season. Ideal in warm climate landscapes and container gardens, but is especially happy sitting on your windowsill as a houseplant. Protect your PRINCE OF PARADISE™ from frost!
