Aeonium  “Lily Pad”

Description:

Family: Crassulaceae

Small shrubby Aeonium with thick green leaves, and flattened rosettes. Branches readily, stays low.

This is a hybrid of A. bethencourtianum and A. lindleyi.

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.
