My Tiny Garden - Echeveria bells

in #photography8 years ago (edited)

I don't know what type of Echeveria it is. But that doesn't make me like it less or makes it less pretty and special.
The blooms are so pretty! The first show as orange buds but after opening they turn more to warm yellow. Pretty thing!

Of course I had to make it a star of this photo shot. Not even my cat dared to interrupt (for a change)

And this is the mommy plant. It has few little pups around so it will get bushier and bigger this year. Few I already gave away, but there is ore left.
Pretty light green/blue leaves with the delicate farina - it's the white powder that some succulent have. Probably to keep the moist away from the leaves.

It looks like a cultivar of Echeveria Elegans. I like how they change colours throughout the year, depending on how hot or wet the environment is. The farina on the leaves is actually the plant's sunscreen. It seems waterproof because it is, so that it isn't lost when it rains

Thanks! I knew Farina is for some kind of protection Didn't think of the sun.
I thought Elegans would be even lighter and more blue... but maybe it is some version of it. I cant really compare it, since I never had the other one.
