Echeveria 'Cimette' is a rare blue-green succulent that belongs to the diverse Echeveria genus, native to the mountainous regions of Mexico. This exceptional cultivar has gained popularity among collectors for its distinctive coloration and compact rosette form.
This small rosette succulent displays stunning blue-green leaves with subtle silvery undertones that shimmer in bright light. Echeveria 'Cimette' forms tight, symmetrical rosettes that typically reach 3-4 inches across, with thick, spoon-shaped leaves that curve gracefully inward. The leaves often develop pink or purple edges when exposed to bright light, creating a beautiful contrast against the cool blue-green base color.
Echeveria 'Cimette' produces delicate bell-shaped flowers on arching stems during winter months, typically displaying coral-pink to orange blooms. The plant may need cooler nighttime temperatures to encourage flowering, making it an excellent winter blooming plant for indoor spaces. This air purifying plant also releases oxygen at night and filters formaldehyde from indoor environments.
This beginner friendly succulent excels as an office plant, thriving under LED lighting while tolerating dry heated air. Echeveria 'Cimette' shows clear signs when thirsty through slight leaf wilting, making care straightforward for new plant parents. The plant is pet friendly and can move outside for summer growing, though it needs protection from rain to prevent crown rot.
