Aeonium

Aeonium is a unique plant from the succulent variety with black settled flowers and no, literally no leaves.

Aeonium is a type of flowering plant in the family of Crassulaceae. It is native to the Canary Islands and is known for its beautiful, rosette-shaped leaves and its ability to thrive in dry, desert-like conditions. Aeonium is a popular choice for use in gardens, containers, and as a houseplant.

Aeonium is a low-maintenance plant that is easy to care for. It prefers well-draining soil and should be watered sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between watering. It is important to avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot. Aeonium also prefers bright, indirect light and should be protected from direct sunlight, which can scorch its leaves.

Aeonium can be propagated through stem cuttings or by dividing the offsets, also known as “pups,” that form around the base of the plant. To propagate through stem cuttings, simply cut a stem from a healthy plant and allow it to callous over before planting it in well-draining soil. To propagate through offsets, carefully remove the offsets from the base of the plant and pot them on their own.

One common problem with Aeonium is the presence of pests, such as aphids and mealybugs. These can be treated with a mixture of rubbing alcohol and water or with insecticidal soap. Overwatering can also be a problem, as it can lead to root rot. It is important to allow the soil to dry out completely between watering and to only water the plant when it is needed.

Aeonium is a versatile plant that can be used in a variety of settings, from gardens to containers to indoor spaces. It is well-suited for use in rock gardens or as a groundcover, and its beautiful, rosette-shaped leaves

Perfect for your table decor. Care is needed for the provision of water and light. Growth depends on the atmosphere, nature and weather.
