Echeveria 'Hercules' PP26,230 - A small evergreen succulent to 4 inches tall with 3 to 4 inch wide rosettes of tightly packed grey-green leaves that have gray-purple to pink leaf backside, leaf margins and tips with these colors enhanced when drought or winter temperature stressed. An attractive unbranched inflorescence rises well above the rosette holds nodding pure yellow flowers in late spring and summer. This plant was bred by Gert Ubink of Kudelstaart, Netherlands by crossing the seed parent, an unnamed Echeveria pulidonis cultivar, with an unnamed Echeveria elegans cultivar in 2006 and selecting this plant from the resulting seedlings and named it in 2008. It received U.S. Plant Patent PP26,230 in 2015. Our plants from unrooted cuttings sent to us by Dümmen Orange.
