Echeveria x Karl-von-Nurnberg
This plant is named as another of the clones
from the Graessner 'stables' but there is no proof that the name is
valid. The leaves are a superb colour
especially in the winter. It has a somewhat lax habit, the stems trail
as the plant grows.
CULTIVATION is somewhat difficult due to the large rosettes becoming
detached from the weak stems.
High light conditions help.
PROPAGATION consists of periodically beheading the plant and starting
over. Offsets do occasionally develop these are fairly easy to root.

Echeveria x Perle-von-Nurnberg
One
of the best 'von Nurnberg' hybrid
clones produced from crossing E.gibbiflora metallica with E. potosina
originated by Graessner, Perleberg, Germany. It is difficult to be sure
of the validity of names as cultivation and seasonal variations produce
changes of colour and form.
CULTIVATION easy good light improves the colour.
Normal succulent compost with high potash is OK.
PROPAGATION is easy from from leaves, cuttings, and offsets. Plants
produced from leaves will often make very nice clumps. It is best to
start new plants every 2 or 3 years to maintain good stock.
