The grey-green, scale-like leaves of this unusual succulent are tightly packed - one on top of the other - and gently curled at their tips. As the plant grows, quite distinctive square-shaped columns are formed, which become branching as the plant matures.
Please note that the pot in the photograph is not supplied with the plant (which is sent out in a simple nursery alternative), but we have a wide and wonderful range on our website to choose from. - Home care: During the growing season, water thoroughly - making sure the excess water drains away freely. Then, when the compost has dried out, repeat the process. Water very sparingly in winter.
