     Full sun.

     Gritty, Porous and Well-Drained.

    Aeonium Kiwi


    Aeonium Percarneum (Aeonium "Kiwi") is a drought tolerant succulent with branches of variegated, pointed leaves. Its leaves can have up to 4 colors when grown in ideal condition: green, yellow, white, and red. It grows up to 8 inches and produces bell-shaped flowers in winter. It goes dormant in the summer and grows best in cool shade/ winter time. 

     Full Sun, Partial Sun. 

     Porous and well-drained sandy soil. 

     In winter, water thoroughly when soil is dry to the touch, then let drain completely. Avoid letting water sit for too long in the soil to prevent rot and fungal diseases. Reduce watering to a minimum in summer when the plant goes dormant.

     You can propagate Aeonium Kiwi from leaf cuttings taken when the plant is in its active period.

    Chocolate Soldier is very drought tolerant when established. The velvety leaves are covered with soft tiny hairs that act as a natural shield from hot sunlight.

    Pachyveria Haagei

     It love full sun, with some shade during the hottest part of the day. A good light exposure helps to keep the plants compact and encourage leaf colour and flowering.
