Echeveria grandiflora

An old name published by Haworth in 1828, for a large-flowered Mexican Echeveria now little used. There is no checklist distribution, and the few GBIF records mix central Mexico with obviously cultivated plants in Baja California and Canada, so treat these conditions as a genus-level guide.

Where it grows wild

No habitat notes were reachable. The central Mexican records lie near the Valley of Mexico and Morelos uplands, where large Echeveria grow on rocky, open slopes.

Recorded elevations run from about 60 to 2,380 m, with a median near 2,300 m; the low record is a cultivated plant.

Mexico: Central highlands (México State, Mexico City)
