Echeveria 'Opal Moon' is a stunning hybrid succulent believed to be a cross between Echeveria Lauii and Echeveria Purpusorum. It features compact rosettes of plump, large, fleshy, and rounded leaves with very small tips at the ends. The foliage transitions in color from a soft light green to a captivating purplish-pink, with well-defined, slightly wavy red edges. In optimal conditions, the plant produces long, sturdy stems crowned with rosettes that can grow up to 20-30 cm in diameter. This variety thrives in well-draining soil and bright, indirect light, making it a showstopper for succulent arrangements or container gardens.
