Hands-down one of our most impressive succulent blooms–forming numerous 9” wide umbels in Summer that completely smother the plant in vivid shades of pink, simultaneously ranging from near-white to deepest burgundy! Gorgeous! And the star-shaped blooms positively glisten with rich sticky nectar. Leaves are grassy green and form rosettes 9” tall by 1’ wide. Reliably pups to increase the size of your treasure and provide free babies for you to scatter or share. Good drainage is essential. Blooms best in full sun. Excellent in containers! Bees ahoy!
