Echeveria secunda - Hairy Echeveria 5582

            Two more Echeveria before we move onto another succulent. If you want geometry in nature, go to flowers, and if you want that in the extreme, go to succulents such as Echeveria colorata.

Echeveria colorata, is a species of flowering plant in the family Crassulaceae, endemic to Mexico.  Echeveria colorata is an evergreen perennial succulent, with a rosette of fleshy leaves growing up to 40 centimetres (16 in) in diameter. I saw this specimen outside of Ruth Bancroft Garden every day as I was walking home. The patterns of the leaves was very interesting, but I decided to wait a few weeks to see if it would flower. I'm not sure that it ever did, but the leaves turned a very pretty pink and lavender as the plant got taller.

Echeveria secunda is another in the hens and chicks Family, Crassulaceae. Echeveria secunda, called the glaucous echeveria, is a species of succulent flowering plant in the genus Echeveria, native to Mexico, and introduced to the Dominican Republic, New Zealand, and Vietnam. I particularly liked them because the flower stalk grew away from the base and made it easier to photography the stem and flowers.

Both photographed at and near Ruth Bancroft Garden in northern California.
