Unlike other Echeveria, it has thick, pointed leaves resembling Agave species. Lanceolate leaves, 8-12 mm thick, arranged in a compact rosette, 3-5 cm long, slightly dentate margins; bright green color with intensified red tips under full sun and seasonal cold.
Needs full sun exposure for minimum 6 hours; reduced watering from October to March; substrate with at least 70% well-draining mineral content; minimum temperature 5 °C; sensitive to waterlogging causing leaf rot.
