Graptoveria Titubans variegata is a succulent plant that does not occur in nature. It is a hybrid of two genera, Graptopetalum and Echeveria, which are native to Mexico, Arizona, South and Central America. The different forms of this succulent are characterised by their different colours.
This variegated form is characterised by the beautiful pale yellow tinge of the leaves, which are rather white in winter. When night and day temperatures fluctuate, the leaves turn pink. They are thick, spoon-shaped and pointed. The plant eventually forms multiple rosettes up to 7 centimetres across. These consist of many layers of triangular, succulent leaves. Overall it is a rather small succulent, growing to a maximum height of about 20 cm.
Graptoveria flowers are inconspicuous, yellow, small and star-shaped. These hybrids rarely flower.
The plant can be rejuvenated by cutting. Fertilizing it could deform the growth, so do not fertilize it. It is a very colourful and attractive form, which also attracts attention by the fact that it is not so widespread in the Czech Republic.
