Echeveria gibbiflora ‘Mauna Loa’

This cabbage-like succulent is actually an Echeveria; it looks similar to red leaf lettuce or red cabbage.  Its large flat leaves crinkle and frill at the edges forming rosettes up to 12 inches in diameter. The rosettes are pale green when young, and then develop shades of blue and pink with age.  Edges can turn red to burgundy when grown in the sun.
