Echeveria cante x E. lyonsii

Created by Gerhard Köhres, Germany

Common Names:  

Echeveria 'White Cloud', Echeveria 'White Shadow'

This very pretty echeveria was originally thought to be a form of E. subrigida and is closely related to it, E. cante was given separate species status in 1998; the new name honors the Cante Institute and Botanic Garden in San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, Mexico. E. cante usually grows in solitary, 1-2 foot, stemless rosettes of whitish blue-green leaves edged in rose pink. The leaves and inflorescences are covered with a powdery lavender-white coating. The plant blooms in summer with 1 inch long flowers in the typical reddish-orange color of the genus. Flower spikes rise 1.5 to 2 feet tall and have multiple short side branches that bear several flowers each. The genus Echeveria was namedinto honor of Mexican botanical artist Atanasio Echeverría y Godoy in 1828 by the French botanist Augustin Pyramus de Candolle. Echeverias comprise about 180 species and are native to mid to higher elevations in the Americas with the main distribution in Mexico and central America but extending as far north as southern Texas and as far south as Bolivia, Peru and possibly Argentina. Special care should be taken not to touch the distinctive leaf bloom.
