Echeveria 'Latte Rose', also called Brown Ghost Plant, is a compact rosette succulent in the Crassulaceae family, bred as a Kelly Griffin hybrid from Mexican Echeveria species. It forms tight, symmetrical rosettes and is considered a rare collector variety among indoor succulent growers.
The leaves are thick and spoon-shaped, arranged in a dense rosette that stays compact over time. They hold a soft gray-pink tone with a powdery farina coating that gives the surface a matte, dusty finish. 'Latte Rose' can develop warmer blush or mauve hues across the leaf tips depending on light exposure.
'Latte Rose' may produce slender arching stems with small bell-shaped flowers in warm shades when exposed to a noticeable drop in nighttime temperature. Blooms typically appear in late spring to summer. This plant is pet friendly, so it can sit anywhere in the home without concern for cats or dogs.
Move it outside for summer, placing it in a spot with good air circulation and protection from rain, as standing water in the rosette leads to rot. Rotate it a quarter turn every week or two so each side receives even light. 'Latte Rose' tolerates the dry heated air common in most homes during winter and survives up to ten days without water between trips.

Q: How much light does Echeveria 'Latte Rose' need?
A: A bright east- or west-facing window works well. South-facing windows can scorch the leaves, so keep it a foot or more back from the glass if that is your only option.
Q: How do I know when to water it?
A: Echeveria 'Latte Rose' wilts slightly and the leaves feel less firm when it needs water. Check the soil at least two inches down before watering again.
Q: Can 'Latte Rose' go outside in summer?
A: Yes. Move it to a covered patio or sheltered spot with bright indirect to partial direct sun, and shield it from rain so water does not pool in the rosette.
Q: Is this plant safe for cats and dogs?
A: 'Latte Rose' is non-toxic and safe for cats and dogs.
Q: How do I propagate 'Latte Rose'?
A: Gently twist a healthy leaf free from the base, let the end callous for a day or two, then lay it on dry succulent mix. Small rosettes emerge from the base of the leaf over several weeks.
Q: Is this a rare succulent?
A: 'Latte Rose' is a Kelly Griffin hybrid and is considered a rare find compared to common nursery Echeveria varieties.
