Variegation that doesn’t shout — it simply stands out 🌿
Family: Crassulaceae • Pot diameter: 10.5 cm • Height: ~15 cm
The Echeveria mira 'variegata' is a collector-grade rosette with a clean, premium pattern: creamy zones and soft green tones alternate across thick leaves, and in strong light the edges can pick up a subtle blush. The silhouette stays compact and “sculpted”, which makes it perfect as a standalone display plant or as the focal point in a refined succulent arrangement. It’s the kind of plant where the look does the work — crisp geometry, tidy form, and a variegation pattern that keeps every angle interesting.
Give it very bright light so the rosette stays tight and the pattern reads clearly. Indoors, a bright window is ideal. Outdoors, gentle sun works well — just be mindful of extreme midday intensity and increase exposure gradually.
Design role: a collector “focus point” that adds fine detail and bright contrast.
Taxonomic context: Echeveria belongs to Crassulaceae, a family known for rosette-forming succulents with strong drought-adaptations.
Genus background: Many Echeveria species are associated with Mexico and nearby regions, often growing on rocky, fast-draining substrates in bright conditions.
Name usage in cultivation: The trade name ‘mira’ is used horticulturally for a rosette type with a distinctive look; ‘variegata’ indicates a form with variegation (areas of reduced chlorophyll) on the leaves.
Propagation & stability: Variegated forms are typically maintained through vegetative propagation (offsets/leaf or stem propagation where applicable) so the pattern remains consistent. The intensity of the pattern can shift with season and light.
Note on cultivar-specific documentation: Public, primary breeder data for this exact variegated line is often limited in the open literature; for that reason, we describe what is reliably observable (form, growth habit, and variegation behavior) rather than claiming a specific breeder or year.

Give it very bright light. In lower light, patterns often look calmer and the plant may appear greener overall.
Water only when the potting mix is fully dry throughout. Overly frequent moisture is the most common cause of issues with succulents.
Yes — tones can change with season and light. In stronger light, cream areas and soft blush tones tend to look cleaner.
