Echeveria 'Melaco'

Echeveria 'Melaco' Highlights:

• Echeveria 'Melaco' forms a unique rosette of dark leaves ranging in color from brown, to burgundy, to copper, to salmon depending on the conditions in which it is grown. Just one look at this showstopper and you'll know why this beauty was named 'Melaco'- meaning "molasses" in Portuguese. 
• Easily propagated from leaf and stem cuttings.
• Produces tall bloom stalks with orange and pink, bell-shaped flowers that typically bloom in the spring and early summer.
• Hardy to Zone 9b (25°-30° F). Echeveria will not survive a hard frost. However, succulents can easily be grown indoors under grow lights or in a sunny window if there is a risk of temperatures dropping below 35° F. If there is only a risk of freezing temperatures for a few days, most succulents do just fine outside if they are covered by frost cloth or a sheet until temperatures increase (I'm talking to you, Zone 9 friends).
