Description, Notes

African native succulent in the Crassulaceae Family grown for its outrageous burgundy spotted foliage; leaves can reach up to 5" wide!; foliage will spill over (from weight) if not pruned back yearly, which also helps to generate the best color; excellent indoor houseplant for sunny windows; drought resistant; prefers well drained soils and dry-out in between waterings; this one is very frost sensitive, so grow inside or make sure to protect when temperatures approach freezing.
