A Madagascar miniature that produces many stolons with thickly succulent little crinkly leaves. Absolutely adorable. Foliage is very colorful.
A succulent with rough irregular stems bearing slender wavy edged leaves, folded and crisp, producing stems with very dainty tiny bell shaped light pink flowers having yellow centers. A very unusual plant.
