Aeonium lancerottense
Aeonium lancerottense is a striking succulent, native to the Canary Islands, known for its rosettes of fleshy, spoon-shaped leaves. The leaves are a vibrant green, often tinged with red or pink at the edges, especially when exposed to bright sunlight. This colourful margin adds a touch of visual interest to the plant, making it a standout in any succulent collection.
This plant forms large, dense clusters of rosettes that can reach up to 30 cm in diameter, creating a dramatic and architectural display. Aeonium lancerottense thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-draining soil. It is drought-tolerant but benefits from occasional watering during the growing season, making it a low-maintenance choice for gardeners.
Aeonium lancerottense is ideal as a focal point in succulent arrangements or as a house/conservatory plant. Can be used for summer ourdoor decoration but needs protection from frost. A nice unusual variety for the collectors.
