The massive, fleshy, leaves of the Agave Guiengola and its variegated counterpart ‘Creme Brulee’ are tremendous examples of a succulents succulence. Many smaller succulents, Graptoveria Opalina and Pachyveria Glauca, are also strong examples of succulents with a swollen appearance. As a general rule, water these more fleshy varieties less than their thinner leaf cousins, Aeonium Urbicum and Echeveria Afterglow
