Description,
Notes
|
One of the most lavishly exquisite
succulents on the planet, 'Afterglow' is a cacophony of
color, whose leaves are a powdery purple/pink with a deeper
pink margin. As the plant slowly "pups" out, the display
becomes even more exceptional, especially when combined
with the brightly colored flower stalks; Perfect as a
"conversation piece" patio plant, or directly in the ground
with adequate drainage; Drought and deer resistant.
