A few years down the line it has proved to be hardy and very colourful - usually this species is pinker than this.

Colourful clone of Echeveria rosea.
Upon returning home from one of my Mexico trips I found a small piece of echeveria had somehow blown into my luggage.

Re: Colourful clone of Echeveria rosea.
I don't suppose you've propagated any have you? Or could any pieces like the ones that were blown into your luggage be blown all the way to Nottingham?!!

Naughty wind ... but worth it
Endeavouring to grow Aylostera, Echinocereus, Echinopsis, Gymnocalycium, Matucana, Rebutia, and Sulcorebutia. Fallen out of love with Lithops and aggravated by Aeoniums.
Currently being wooed by Haworthia, attempting hybridisation, and enticed by Mesembs.
