    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    From La Gomera, one of the Canary Islands, comes this only recently described, stately & unusual species. Aeonium rubrolineatum is a thick-stemmed plant with long leaves that darken in the sun, reaching an impressive 5’ tall. It can branch from the central stalk, but not so much as to become “shrubby.” Besides its relative hugeness, the flowers are said to be orange – an unusual color for Aeoniums. The flowering inflorescence itself is very dense & conical. All & all, a promising combination of things. Aeoniums are tolerant of many exposures & soil types as long as they don’t get too damp! New to us, & fairly new to cultivation in general. Try it out!
