Guide

The species-level account. Cultivar pages build on this and say where they differ.

Aeonium lancerottense is a succulent subshrub from the Canary Islands, where it grows on rocky, sun-exposed slopes and stores water in its fleshy rosettes. Give it bright direct light and a gritty, fast-draining mix, and water only when the soil has dried fully through — when the top several centimeters are dry and the lower leaves feel slightly soft. It is far more tolerant of drought than of standing moisture, which rots the roots and stem.
