Echeveria rodolfoi

Where it grows wild

It grows at lower to mid elevations in the Sierra Madre Oriental foothills and ranges of the Chihuahuan Desert margin, probably on rocky slopes and cliffs in submontane scrub or oak woodland. This is inferred from the localities.

The measured sites are at 491 m and 1,257 m. Few records carry an elevation.
