Description How to Grow Delivery

This compact tropical succulent enjoys warm conditions, moderate lighting and low watering, so it’s an undemanding little plant that will thrive under fluorescent lights in an office environment or in a shadier position in the home. This rarely offered variety forms neat rosettes of silvery-green leaves accented with deeply grooved veins. The upper surface of the leaves has a metallic shimmer that is beautifully contrasted with its cheeky red undersides. Display it at eye-level or above for the best effect.
