A Bit More

Aeonium ‘Kiwi’ is a colorful, shrubby succulent cultivar featuring fleshy, spoon-shaped leaves forming rosettes, starting yellow, turning lime green with bright pink/red edges and blooms with pale yellow to cream, star-shaped flowers on stalks in late spring to summer. It is monocarpic; individual rosettes die after flowering, but the plant produces new, non-flowering pups. Requires well-draining, sandy, or rocky soil. Drought-resistant; water sparingly, particularly during Aeonium summer dormancy. Prefers full sun to part shade (needs protection from intense, direct summer sun in hot, arid climates). Deer and rabbit-resistant. Fire-resistant. Cold hardy to 25°F for short periods, but should be kept above freezing. Best when temperatures are between 65-80°F.
