Bordered with frills, the edges of this plant's leaves almost look delicate - whilst still being strong enough to store water for the plant. These pretty leaves are a valuable addition to any collection, from beginner to succulent enthusiast, and given a bright windowsill position and not too much water they can thrive in your home. In summer you may even see coral flowers produced on a tall flower spike, so keep your eyes peeled!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eScientific Name\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cem\u003eEcheveria shaviana\u003c\/em\u003e (Echeverría's Plant, Shavi's species)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThis plant's name was first published in 1972\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCommon Name(s)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003ePink Frills, Mexican Hens and Chicks, Mexican Hens\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eOrigin\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eNative to the mountainous regions of northeastern Mexico, where it grows in pine needles on shaded boulders\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eLight\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003ePrefers bright light; will benefit from a few hours of direct sun per day.
