This popular succulent forms a rosette of interestingly coloured leaves. The small leaves are blue-green with red highlights and have a white, powdery dusting. This succulent typically grows to 10 cm tall and 20 cm wide, growing best when positioned in full sun position on a well-drained site. It is tolerant of moderate frost, cool climates, coastal environments, and extended dry periods. This succulent makes a great pot plant and is often used in rock gardens, or grown where something hardy and a little unusual is wanted. The wonderful leaf shape and colour makes this a stand out plant.
