Echeveria nodulosa, the 'painted echeveria', is a species of succulent flowering plant in the Crassulaceae (stonecrop) family. Fairly popular in cultivation, it is native to Mexico, where it is widely-distributed, and rather common, in northern Oaxaca and southern Puebla. It is known for its striped, purplish leaves, its "knobby" stems (hence the name nodulosa), and its seasonal display of flowers.
