PRESALE Echeveria Red Finkle Cristata, (Not so Random)

Next up is a very rare Red Finkle crest. We have only had this plant just once or twice before. This one has a densely packed ridge of pedals and is eggplant in color right now, but will like show signs of berry during periods of drought or high UV. You don't see this particular cultivar in crest form often. She's measuring in at about 3" across. I believe her stem will be red and about the same measurement (fanned). 

Plant Name: Echeveria Red Finkle (Crested).

Size at Maturity: This plant should max out at about 5-6" inches across, estimated. 

Stress colors: Intense crimson along the stem may be exhibited. Foliage along the ridge will be soft shades of lilac, berry and eggplant, depending on UV conditions and temperature. May potentially go green in warmer climates or during active growth. 

Notable Qualities: This is a very rare crest to see offered.

Care Instructions: As with all crests keep dead foliage cleaned off. Crests have a tendency to have densely packed ridges and dead foliage is very attractive to pests. Make sure your crests are well-groomed. Other than that typical succulent care, no known special requirements. Will actively grow from late spring-late summer, will be semi-dormant in winter through early spring.
