Echeveria nodulosa is a species of flowering plant in the Crassulaceae family.[1] It is commonly called painted echeveria, and is native to Mexico (widely distributed and rather common in North Oaxaca and South Puebla[2]).

They are relatively disease free.[3]

Taxonomy

Echeveria is named for Atanasio Echeverría y Godoy, a botanical illustrator who contributed to Flora Mexicana.[4]

Nodulosa means 'with swellings', or 'bearing nodules', and is typically given in reference to the presence of root nodules.[4]
