Echeveria gibbiflora is a flowering succulent native to Mexico and Guatemala, known for its rosettes of 15 leaves and tall flowering stems reaching up to 3 feet. It blooms with red, tubular flowers from September to January, attracting nectar-seeking birds like the broad-billed hummingbird. This plant is drought-tolerant and thrives in sunny areas with well-draining soil, requiring minimal watering. It is also used in Mexican folk medicine as a contraceptive. The plant's dry fruits produce around 200 small seeds, and it can reproduce in various ways.
