Echeveria agavoides 'Red Edge' (Lipstick Echeveria)

Echeveria agavoides 'Red Edge', commonly known as Lipstick Echeveria, is a cultivar of Echeveria agavoides succulent.

Leaves can grow up to 3.2 inches long and up to 1.2 inches wide. Leaves are apple-green in color with a terminal spine. When they are stressed (or exposed to long periods of sunlight or cold temperature), the tips of the leaves shows off vivid red-pink edges. The flowers of Lipstick Echeveria are pinkish-red with dark yellow tips.

TIP: When a leaf tip/apex forms a sharp point, it's commonly called terminal spine or botanically spinose.

I bought my first Echeveria agavoides Lipstick succulent last December 21, 2021 from my favorite succulent grower, Jinky, from Benguet. It's so huge, it was approximately 7 inches in diameter.

The flower stalk dried up while I was airdrying the succulent. I potted it on January 8, 2022 in Plant Culture PH's cultured soil plus and mixed it with vermicast, DE powder, pumice stones, and topped with lava rocks. I also added a few Osmocote 14-14-14 (fertilizer) since it's growing season.
