Origin: Mexico. A prostrate succulent to 4 inches tall by 12 or more inches wide with white stems bearing pale blue-green to bluish-purple rounded leaves in a rosette at the stems tips. Allow soil to dry before watering again. Full sun/partial shade. USDA Zone 10-11.

Senecio is one of the largest genera of flowering plants there are with thousands of species found all over the world. Though most are not, some are succulent plants with excellent drought tolerance. Slender light green leaves. Maximum Height 6" - 8" tall. Drought tolerant. Not frost hardy. Full sun. Apply water fairly sparingly. USDA Zone 9 to 11.

Fenestraria or "Baby Toes" are very unusual plants from the deserts of South Africa. "Baby Toes" have finger-like leaves in upright clusters. Each "finger" has a translucent "window" at the tip, it is through this window that the harsh African sunlight is filtered to enable photosynthesis. Requires bright light to prevent "stretching" of the leaves. Water thoroughly when soil is dry. Will not tolerate water-logged soils. Frost tolerant, but protection is needed to prevent scarring. USDA Zone 9.

Haworthia coarctata is a plant which belongs to the Haworthia genus. It is a succulent and is treated mainly as an evergreen, so it retains its leaves throughout the year. Normally reaches to a mature height of 5.85 inches. Apply water fairly sparingly. Sun exposure: Light shade. USDA Zone 10-11.

Haworthias are small succulent plants native to South Africa. They are related to Aloes and Gasterias. They are classified as succulent - which means that they can cope with relatively harsh waterless hot environments. They are however not frost hardy, which means that for cultivation they need a sunny windowsill. Sun Exposure: Partial Shade. Soil should dry between waterings. Drought tolerant. USDA Zone 10-11

From South Africa, Argyroderma is two fleshy leaves forming what appears to be a green-blue Easter egg. Silky flowers grow in Autumn in various colors. Requires very porous soil. Protect from frost, provide bright light. USDA Zone 9


Origin: Mozambique, Swaziland, South Africa (KwaZulu Natal, Mpumalanga) Growth Habits: Clustering stemless rosettes, 2 to 3 inches across (2-7.5 cm); 12 to 30 leaves. Sun Exposure: Light shade to shade. Soil should dry between waterings. USDA Zone 10-11.

This charmer, Bronco, has dark green rosettes edged and with burgundy. It's hard to limit yourself to just one variety. The neat rosettes multiply by runners that form dense colonies. Flowering rosettes die after bloom time, but are replaced. Full Sun to Partial Shade. Drought tolerant. USDA Zone 5-10.

Native to Mexico. This plant prefers direct sunshine or very bright filtered light for optimum growth. Warm south windows and sunrooms are excellent choices. If the lighting is to low the plants stems will elongate and the new Jelly Bean growth will be small. Water two or three times a month depending on light intensity and temperature. Allow to dry before watering, water thoroughly until water runs from the drain holes. USDA Zone 9-10.

Water regularly over the summer months letting the soil dry out between waterings. Minimal water is required during winter. It needs a sunny location but also needs protection from scorching afternoon sun. USDA Zone 9-11.

This plant needs tender care because it can rot easily and doesn't tolerate a lot of direct sunlight. Allow soil to dry before watering. Partial/light shade. Does not like to be overwatered. USDA Zone 9-11.

Full sun or partial shade. Allow to soil to dry before watering once a week. USDA Zone 8-11.

Echeveria chroma is a Hybrid created in California. Drought tolerant when established. Water thoroughly when dry to the touch. Protect from frost to prevent scarring. Looks best with regular watering during the winter months. New echeveria with great potential due to it's exciting color and form. USDA Zone 9.

Echeveria derenbergii, native to Oaxaca, Mexico, forms small rosettes with fleshy, glaucous light silvery blue leaves with pink tips. Known as the "Painted Lady". Forms short arching racemes of golden-yellow flowers with orange tips. Great for windowsill. Bright light is required to prevent "stretching" of Echeverias ( (stretching = when a moderately fast growing plant such as an Echeveria, is grown in dim light. Allow soil to dry before watering. USDA Zone 9-10.

Origin: Europe/Mediterranean. This species comes in many forms and colors. Individual rosettes can be plucked (some may roll away on their own) to start new plants. Light shade/filtered sunlight or direct sun for only a few hours. Allow soil to dry before watering once a week. USDA Zone 4-8.


Krebs 2 is one of many outstanding hybrid sempervivums deriving from alpine species native to the mountains of southern Europe and western Asia. The rosettes develop by short-stalked offsets into crowded, colorful, richly textured mats. In summer the older rosettes send out thick erect stems bristling with stubby pointed leaves and topped with dense clusters of tightly packed. USDA Zone 3-9.

Sedum 'Burrito forms semi-prostrate stems with dense glaucous blue-green "jelly bean" leaves. As 'Burrito' seems similar to Sedum morganianum, which is native to Mexico and forms long cascading stems of glaucous blue-green leaves, there has been conjecture that perhaps 'Burrito' is a natural Sedum morganianum hybrid. Prefers bright, filtered light with ample airflow. Water when soil is dry to the touch. USDA Zone 10.

This plant is cold hardy and is heat and drought tolerant. It needs a sunny location but also needs protecting from scorching afternoon sun. It likes the dry side between waterings. USDA Zone 4-8

Graptoveria are hybrid crosses between Graptopetalum and Echeveria. Due to this mixed parentage they form a diverse genus, but most are low growing, cultivated for their beautiful shapes and colours. Graptoveria are very hardy plants requiring porous soil with excellent draiange. Water regularly over the summer months letting the soil dry out between waterings. Minimal water is required over winter. All do best in sun or part sun.
