This striking succulent forms “flowers” or large terminal rosettes 20 cm in diameter with burgundy-black leaves at the ends of stalk like stems. Grow in clumps up to 90 cm tall with gray-brown stems that often branch near their base. Small, bright yellow star like flowers appear in spring. Grow Black Rose Tree succulents in open sunny positions that do not get heavy frosts. Water regularly during hot weather. Excellent container focus plant.

The flower rosettes are small compared to most aeoniums, and consist of thick and fleshy oval shaped or a trowel shaped leaves. The young leaves look similar to the leaves of genus Sedum. The leaves are sticky and are initially green, but soon form red stripes on them. Its inflorescence is a little bundle of small, golden yellow flowers. Aeonium sedifolium grows in full sun or partial shade on eroded volcanic soil. The plant is native to western Tenerife in the Canary Islands, the islands of La Palma and La Gomera.

GUARIMARENSE The Giant House-leek a native from the Canary Islands is an evergreen, perennial, densely branched shrub up to 75 cm tall It bears lovely soft pink starry flowers in late spring In bright shade, the mid green leaves will display orange-rosy tones with red edging In full sun areas the red coloring totally intensifies Read More SucculentShop.co.za Page: 7 GREEN PINWHEEL - AEONIUM DECORUM SucculentShop.co.za Page: 8 SucculentShop.co.za Page: 9 SucculentShop.co.za Page: 10 Aeonium decorum is a densely branched, evergreen, perennial shrub up to 60 cm tall, with up to 3 inches wide rosettes, clustered on thick branches. The leaves are obovate to lanceolate, pale green, up to 5 cm long and 1.5 cm wide, with orange-red tones and red leaf margins. The inflorescence rises above the foliage, bearing small soft pink flowers. Light: It thrives best in full sunlight to part sunlight in a sheltered spot, but the bright light enhances the rich hues of the darker Aeoniums. Soil: It grows well in humus-rich, moist but well-drained, any good potting mix soil. Temperature: It prefers ideal temperatures of 65ºF – 75ºF / 18ºC – 24ºC and no lower than 50ºF / 10ºC. Water: Water moderately but consistently during the growing season, Keep the soil moist but not soggy. Allow the top one inch of soil to dry out between waterings. During the winter reduce watering to a minimum. Fertilizer: Fertilize your plant once every 2 weeks during the active growth period with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted by half. Do not feed while dormant. Propagation: It can be easily propagated by seed or by stem cuttings. Sow seed at 19-24ºC in spring. Take cuttings of rosettes in the spring and kept at 18ºC and barely moist until rooted. Pests and Diseases: It has no serious pest or disease problems. Slugs can do some damage and the occasional bird may take a bite.

The plant is endemic to the Canary Islands. Aeonium arboreum grows as a less branched subshrub and reaches stature heights of up to 2 meters. The more or less upright or ascending, smooth, not net-like patterned stem axes have a diameter of 1 to 3 centimeters. Their leaves are in flattened rosettes with diameters of 10 to 25 centimeters at the end of the stem axes together. Young leaves are pressed tightly together. It bears rosettes of leaves and large pyramidal panicles of bright yellow flowers in the spring. Source: Wikipedia.org Read More SucculentShop.co.za Page: 13.

Alba; Crassulaceae) from Malta (Maltese Islands) differ from previously known S. album plants in having very rarely formed inflorescences mostly without peduncular leaves and floral bracts, flowers in which (3–)5 stamens of one whorl, mostly of the antepetalous one, have dysfunctional and often abortive anthers and only the stamens of the other whorl having 5, dark maroon to blackish-brown, mostly indehiscent anthers at anthesis, pollen which is partly deformed and shrivelled, carpels without nectary scales, and fruits and seeds which remain undeveloped and sterile. The Maltese plants have apparently switched from generative to almost exclusively vegetative reproduction and are described as a new endemic subspecies Sedum album subsp. rupi-melitense. The local history, distribution, habitat, phenol- ogy, and conservation status of this new taxon (which is categorized as Critically Endangered according to IUCN Red List Criteria) are discussed. Key words: asexual reproduction, chromosome number, endemic, Flora of Malta, Mediterranean Flora, IUCN Red List as- sessment, Sedum gypsicola, taxonomy, vegetative reproduction Introduction Sedum Linné (1753: 430) is by far the largest genus of the Crassulaceae and comprises some 420 species, distributed mainly in temperate and subtropical regions of the Northern Hemisphere (Thiede & Eggli 2007).

  • Planting a Dry Rock Garden in Miam1
    Succulents in Miam i-D ade: Planting a D ry Rock Garden John McLaughlin1 Introduction The aim of this publication is twofold: to promote the use of succulent and semi-succulent plants in Miami-Dade landscapes, and the construction of a modified rock garden (dry rock garden) as a means of achieving this goal. Plants that have evolved tactics for surviving in areas of low rainfall are collectively known as xerophytes. Succulents are probably the best known of such plants, all of them having in common tissues adapted to storing/conserving water (swollen stems, thickened roots, or fleshy and waxy/hairy leaves). Many succulent plants have evolved metabolic pathways that serve to reduce water loss. Whereas most plants release carbon dioxide (CO2) at night (produced as an end product of respiration), many succulents chemically ‘fix’ CO2 in the form of malic acid. During daylight this fixed CO2 is used to form carbohydrates through photosynthesis. This reduces the need for external (free) CO2, enabling the plant to close specialized pores (stomata) that control gas exchange. With the stomata closed water loss due to transpiration is greatly reduced. Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM), as this metabolic sequence is known, is not as productive as normal plant metabolism and is one reason many succulents are slow growing. Apart from cacti there are thirty to forty other plant families that contain succulents, with those of most horticultural interest being found in the Agavaceae, Asphodelaceae (= Aloacaeae), Apocynaceae (now including asclepids), Aizoaceae, Crassulaceae, Euphorbiaceae and scattered in other families such as the Passifloraceae, Pedaliaceae, Bromeliaceae and Liliaceae.
