echeveria setosa

Echeveria setosa hails from central Mexico, inhabiting limestone rocky slopes between 1500-2500 m. It is a polycarpic succulent with leaves densely covered in fine hairs, an unusual trait in the genus, aiding in reducing water loss and shielding from intense UV radiation. Leaves spatulate, 3-5 cm long, arranged in a compact rosette, densely covered with white fine hairs giving a velvety texture; green-grey coloration with silvery tones intensified under strong light.
