Description,
Notes
|
Madagascar native succulent in the
Crassulaceae Family grown for its impressive structure
and vivid copper toned foliage; a rarely seen accent color
that can be used effectively in pots (especially those
with bold shiny glazing) or directly in the landscape;
excellent indoor houseplant; drought resistant; prefers
well drained soils and dry-out in between waterings; Has
proven to be surprisingly cold resistant, especially if
placed in part shade locations with ample mulch to protect
the roots, but still always best to protect if temperatures
approach 25° F.
