Description:
A. tabuliforme “Green Star”
Family: Crassulaceae
Large flat plant with broad rosettes and many branches, grows to 12″h.
Habitat:
This is a naturally occurring hybrid between A. lindleyi and A. tabuliforme that occurs in Tenerife, Canary Islands, growing on the rocky cliffs below Taganana
Cultivation:
Does well outdoors in the bay area as a potted plant or landscape specimen. Plant in well draining media. This plant is from a winter rainfall region, but can receive water throughout the year in cultivation. Should be watered about once every 2 weeks, always allowing time for the soil to dry out between waterings. This plant does not like extreme heat and can fry if the temperatures rise above 100°F for long periods. Aeoniums are monocarpic so branches die back after flowering, but plants will generally re-branch from lower stems.
