Plant description
A beautiful, low-maintenance succulent with a rosette of lavender-coloured leaves that give rise to a flowering stem of coral-pink flowers at times throughout the year. Pop ‘Purple Pearl’ on a brightly lit windowsill where it will shine like the sun that it loves or combine with other contrasting varieties such as Echeveria ‘Devotion’ or Echeveria setosa for a colourful, year-round display.
