Echeveria plant named ‘Dark Moon’

Abstract

A new and distinct Echeveria cultivar named ‘Dark Moon’ is disclosed, characterized by concentric rosettes comprised of an abundance of deep violet black leaves. The new cultivar is robust growing, as compared to other existing dark Echeverias , enabling increased and faster propagation of the cultivar. The new cultivar ‘Dark Moon’ is more resistant to disease and “shattering” (as occurs with summer stress syndrome, a disease of some Echeverias , particularly the dark-leaved varieties). The new variety is an Echeveria , part of the Crassulaceae complex that includes Aeonium, Crassula, Graptopetalum, Pachyphytum, Sedum and others. Echeveria is a popular genus, typically produced as container plants for the patio or as landscape plants, as a variety of ornamental purposes.

What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A new and distinct cultivar of  Echeveria  plant named ‘DARK MOON’ as herein illustrated and described.
