If you want to have an idea just how repulsive those painted Echeveria plants can be open this site:

BUT DO NOT IF YOU HAVE A WEAK STOMACH!
They were 'popular' a year or two ago, some people actually believe they grow this way. You can buy painted orchids here just as well ('blue' Phalaenopsis by injecting ink in the flowering stem) or near king's day orange chrysanthemum which are whites dipped in paint. The things some people do for money.... For years the company I work for sold a glue which was used by our customers to dip young conifers in, than through a bath of glitters and which were sold as 'mini' christmas trees. A big hit (over 1.000.000 sold each year) but soooo ugly
