This maybe small but its beautiful, in the future it should be an amazing specimen.
This is known as Purple Dark Tips
This Bordeaux which I've seen from mature plant has a glorious deep colour.
Some sellers have this named Red Wine that can confuse.
Another one, a little smaller is Eric Hargreal. A interesting hybrid with good colouring
These two I took a chance on as the descriptions were questionable, but I liked the look of them and took a chance.
First is a purple that could possibly be Giant Purple. A risk worth taking I think as it has great colouring and blotching on the leaves.
Again described as a Pink Sirius, its form suggests that it could be a hybrid of something else.
But no matter, its a nice looking specimen.
My only doubt that this is a Pink Sirius is that it is producing pups centrally, and I'm told the Pink Sirius is notoriously reluctant to offset .
It seems I'm building a collection of Agavoides. I thought I was doing well at 15 until someone told me they had 25-30.
Here's a few to share with you.
First one is a unknown hybrid of Sirius that when it first arrived was bright pink, a product of being stuck under a heat lamp to produce a false colour. It's what dodgy sellers do unfortunately, along with giving it some outlandish name to sell it under. It's a shame people do this as buyers are only going to be disappointed. For them they have your money. So while Echeveria Agavoides have no official register, its the wild west out there.
Nice form though, and I'll update during the summer with how it naturally looks
Next is Frank Reinelt a lovely cross that has a looser less compact style, but makes up for that with great colouring. Cheers Harry !
This little one is Frank Reinelt, again another cross with elongated leaves and structure.
