Echeveria pendulosa

A Venezuelan Echeveria described by Kimnach and Uhl; the name refers to its hanging habit. GBIF holds no wild occurrence records, only chromosome-count citations, so its habitat and climate are essentially undocumented. Its care has to be inferred from Andean cliff-dwelling Echeveria.

Where it grows wild

Undocumented. The name suggests pendent rosettes, typical of plants hanging from cliffs or steep rock faces; Venezuelan Echeveria mostly grow in the Andes and coastal mountains.
