Pachyphytum meyranii

A rarely recorded Pachyphytum name with no usable wild records, so this profile is built from what is known for the genus: thick-leaved rosette succulents of rocky slopes and cliffs in central and northeastern Mexico. Grow it like other Pachyphytum: bright light, a gritty mineral mix, and a cool, dry winter.
