    We love succulents!

Echevaria is a large genus of the crassulae family native to the semi-desert areas of central America from Mexico to northwestern South America (Wikepedia).  Their leaves look like exquisite blossoms and come in a range of colors.  These ones remain compact and are in the pink/purple range.

Three varieties of echevaria are planted diagonally in alternating rows

     Drip irrigation is hidden under the pebble surface, providing moisture with a minimum of water loss due to evaporation.  The plants will grow to about 14" in diameter over the next 12 months.
