It seems you’re referring to Aeonium haworthii, commonly known as “Haworth’s Aeonium” or “Pinwheel Aeonium.” This succulent is popular for its rosettes of fleshy, spoon-shaped leaves and its ability to form attractive clusters.
Key Characteristics of Aeonium Haworthii (Haworth’s Aeonium):
- Foliage: Aeonium haworthii has rosettes of small, spoon-shaped leaves that are a pale green to yellow-green, often with red or pink edges, especially when exposed to bright light. The leaves have a slightly glossy texture and are arranged in tight, symmetrical rosettes that can resemble a pinwheel, giving rise to its common name.
- Size: The rosettes typically grow to about 4 to 6 inches (10 to 15 cm) in diameter. The plant itself can reach up to 24 inches (60 cm) in height when it develops a woody stem. Over time, Aeonium haworthii can form clusters or small shrubs.
- Flowers: In the spring or summer, Aeonium haworthii produces clusters of small, star-shaped flowers that are typically white or pale yellow. These flowers emerge on long, slender stalks above the rosettes and add a delicate beauty to the plant.
Care Tips for Aeonium Haworthii (Haworth’s Aeonium):
- Light: Aeonium haworthii prefers bright, indirect light to full sun. In outdoor settings, it thrives in a sunny spot but may need some protection from the harshest midday sun, especially in very hot climates. Indoors, place it near a bright window, such as a south-facing window, to ensure it receives enough light.
- Watering: Unlike many succulents, Aeonium haworthii has a growing season in the cooler months (fall to spring) and may need more frequent watering during this time. Use the “soak and dry” method, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings. In the summer, when the plant enters a dormant period, reduce watering significantly.
- Soil: Plant in well-draining soil, such as a cactus or succulent mix. Adequate drainage is crucial to prevent root rot, as Aeonium haworthii does not like to sit in wet soil.
- Temperature: This plant prefers mild temperatures, ideally between 65°F and 75°F (18°C to 24°C). It can tolerate cooler temperatures down to about 40°F (4°C) but is not frost-tolerant and should be protected from freezing conditions.
- Propagation: Aeonium haworthii can be propagated by taking stem cuttings or by removing offsets (pups) that form around the base of the plant. Allow cuttings to callous for a few days before planting them in well-draining soil.
- Maintenance: Prune any leggy growth to maintain a compact shape, and remove any dead or damaged leaves to keep the plant looking healthy. If the plant becomes too tall or top-heavy, it can be cut back, and the cuttings can be rooted to create new plants.
