Echeveria ‘Afterglow” is a succulent cultivar featuring frilly, wavy-edged leaves with colorful pink flushing on the margins, particularly in spring and fall. The leaves are covered in powdery white wax for sun protection. Tall stalks of tubular or bell-shaped coral/pink/orange flowers bloom from mid-spring to early summer. Ideal for containers, rock gardens, focal point, borders, and xeriscaping. Safe to use around areas frequented by curious cats and dogs. Excellent for seacoast conditions. Low water needs. Allow soil to fully dry out before watering again. Prefers nutrient-lacking soil that is highly porous. Gritty soil (pumice or perlite) is best. It needs excellent drainage. Prefers bright, filtered light to full sun. It will stretch and lose color if grown in too much shade. Fire-resistant. Deer and rabbit-resistant. Immune to Verticillium wilt. Cold hardy to 20°F.
