Echeveria 'Rosetta Serra' is a succulent in the Crassulaceae family, native to the semi-arid highlands of Mexico and Central America where it evolved to grow in bright sun and fast-draining soil. The genus Echeveria has long been grown by beginner plant parents and collectors seeking low-maintenance indoor greenery.
'Rosetta Serra' forms a symmetrical rosette of plump, spoon-shaped leaves in soft lime green, often flushed with peachy-pink at the tips when exposed to plenty of light. The foliage has a powdery farina coating that gives the rosette a refined, almost sculptural appearance. As a clustering grower, it gradually offsets to form a tidy colony of rosettes over time.
It produces slender arching stems tipped with small bell-shaped flowers, a typical trait of the genus that emerges when the plant experiences a distinct drop in night temperatures. It also releases oxygen at night.
'Rosetta Serra' works as a desk succulent, windowsill accent, or patio container plant. Move it outside in summer to soak up natural sun. Bring it back indoors before heavy rain arrives, as prolonged moisture on the rosette causes rot. You can leave it up to ten days without water. It tolerates dry heated air. It is non-toxic to cats and dogs.

A: Echeveria 'Rosetta Serra' is non-toxic and safe for cats and dogs.
Q: How much light does 'Rosetta Serra' need?
A: It adapts well to bright indirect light, partial sun, or full sun. Rotate it regularly so all sides receive even light exposure.
Q: How large does it get?
A: 'Rosetta Serra' typically reaches 3-5 inches across as a single rosette, though it clusters over time to form a wider colony.
Q: How do I propagate 'Rosetta Serra'?
A: Remove the offsets that form at the base of the mother rosette and pot them in dry, gritty soil. Leaf propagation is also possible, though offsets root more reliably and faster.
