With her elegant ‘robes’ of luscious pale green, crowned with a royal red, Miranda reigns supreme over the Echeveria family. The longer she rules, the more sophisticated she becomes with pale green foliage giving way to deeper, more intense colouring as she matures. The quintessential queen of the Echevaria and she knows it too.
