Echeveria nodulosa is a highly decorative succulent, recognizable by:
- Its light green to olive green leaves, marked with distinctive red or purple lines
- Its more open rosette shape than other echeverias
- Its slightly upright habit, which can become a little sprawling over time
- Its small bell-shaped, yellow to orange flowers, which appear on long floral stems
It is often called "Painted Echeveria" due to its colorful patterns. Avoid leaving water in the saucer, as it is very susceptible to root rot.
