Description

The Stalked Aeonium is a robust, architectural species known for its very large, wavy-edged, bright green rosettes atop thick, bare stems. It has a bold, almost tropical appearance and can form a sizable succulent shrub. Its common name refers to the long, sturdy stalks (stems) that hold the rosettes aloft. It’s a dramatic choice for creating a succulent “tree” effect in frost-free gardens.

• Characterized by very large, saucer-shaped rosettes with wavy (undulate), glossy, bright green leaves.

• Grows on thick, upright, often solitary or sparsely branched stems, creating a palm-like silhouette.

• One of the largest aeonium species, capable of forming a substantial shrub over time.

• Produces large, conical clusters of yellow flowers.

• Tolerant of coastal conditions and prefers regular watering during its active growth.

• Makes a bold architectural statement in the landscape.
