xGraptoveria Olivia

Graptoveria are hybrid crosses between Graptopetalum and Echeveria. Due to this mixed parentage they form a diverse genus, but most are low growing, cultivated for their beautiful shapes and colours. They produce stemless, clump-forming rosettes with thick leaves. Graptoveria need good drainage. Tender soft succulent - will not tolerate frost. Graptoveria 'Olivia' is a deep bronze-green succulent, with red tipped leaves and bright red speckling along the ends of its leaves, as well as of its inflorescence stalks. Like all graptoverias, Depending on light intensity in its environment, it can become a lighter shade of its true deep green, with less apparent red speckling at the tips of the leaves. 'Olivia' has golden blooms that sometimes appear yellow-orange, blooming from red-tinged buds on its stalks. It is drought tolerant when established, and most often blooms in the spring and summertime.
