Aeonium arboreum cv Luteovariegatum Spring

 

 

 


Aeonium arboreum cv. Luteovariegatum
A very appealing cultivar of the Aeonium arboreum (species group) in its summer finery.
This variety branches quite readily but is less robust than the type due to the lack of chlorophyll in the leaves. Requires warm conditions at all times, likes a free draining compost with plenty of water when actively growing.

 In the winter great care with watering, regular removal of dead leaves and maximum light is needed. The leaves curl back and are easily Knocked off, but the plant picks up in the spring when slow release fertiliser is beneficial. Potting on , taking cuttings and pinching out the growing point is best done in early summer. Pinching makes for a better shape.
