Green Rose Buds

Green Rose Buds

The green Rose Buds is special in that its dormancy period is when it looks its best.

When the weather cools down, the plant starts growing again, with its leaves turning green and gradually spreading out. The green Rose Buds really dislikes sweltering heat, but watering during its dormancy needs to be avoided, as this could kill the plant.
Aeonium decorum 'Variegatum'

Aeonium decorum 'Variegatum'

Dwarf aeonium

Dwarf aeonium

The old leaves feature straight red stripes down the middle and a red border on the margin, which become pronounced when the leaves turn yellow.
