Aeonium haworthii Kiwi

Aeonium haworthii Kiwi Details

Aeonium haworthii Kiwi is a succulent grown for its symmetrical rosettes of variegated, fleshy leaves. The leaves are cream-yellow towards the centre with a light-mid green colouring towards the outside. The edge of each leaf has a rose-red edge when grown in full sun. In summer, a flower spike sometimes emerges from the centre of the rosette to bear small, bright yellow flowers. It typically grows to 40 cm tall and the same wide, performing best when grown in full sun on a well-drained site. Plants are tolerant of light frost only and require protection from strong winds. They are, however, tolerant of dry soils and coastal environments. Aeonium haworthii Kiwi is excellent for growing in a container, planting in the more arid parts of the garden, rock gardens, or for use in modern gardens where something unusual yet symmetrical is required.
