pachyphytum compactum

Native to the rocky limestone slopes of Mexico's Sierra Madre Occidental, Pachyphytum compactum is a clumping, polycarpic species. Its leaves overlap tightly in a compact rosette, distinguishing it from other Pachyphytum with a denser leaf arrangement. Leaves thick, spatulate, 3-4 cm long, arranged in a dense overlapping rosette. Gray-blue coloration with pinkish tips intensified under full sun and drought stress.
