How we ship our plants

Most of our plants are shipped bare-root. Please note that the plant you receive may not be an exact likeness of the images shown.

アエオニウム 'ディープパープル' は、紫色のロゼットに似た数少ないアエオニウムの1つです。夏の太陽によって色が濃くなります。これは本当に素晴らしい品種です。この生長が早い交配種は、アエオニウム 'ポメグラネート' と同様に、大きくカールした葉も特徴です。最後の写真に示すように、驚くべき高さにまで生長する可能性があります。私たちの最も背の高い個体は、鉢から185cmの高さに達し、ロゼットの直径は40cmでした。その後開花し、さらに40cm高くなり、最終的には2mをはるかに超える高さになりました！裸の茎から子株を出し、メインのロゼットを完璧な形に保つ傾向があり、時折根元からも子株を出します。

On Arrival

アエオニウム 'ディープパープル' is delivered bare-root and will need time to establish in its new pot. Unpack it carefully, remove all protective material and check that the stem, rosette and roots have arrived in good condition.

Plant アエオニウム 'ディープパープル' in fresh, free-draining compost, spreading the roots naturally rather than forcing them in. For the best start, bury a suitable section of healthy bare stem to anchor this top-heavy plant securely and encourage stronger rooting. Aeoniums tolerate having part of the bare stem buried, but keep the rosette and every healthy leaf above the compost surface. Hold the stem upright while filling the pot, then tap the pot lightly on the bench several times to settle the compost without pressing it down hard by hand.

Wait five to seven days before watering. This resting period lets small root injuries from lifting and transport dry, reducing the risk of rot. After that, water lightly while the roots establish, then use the full 3 D's method once the plant is firmly rooted and growing.

Keep アエオニウム 'ディープパープル' in a bright, sheltered position while it establishes. Protect it from intense midday sun for the first week, then introduce it gradually to its recommended light. Temporary softness and the loss of a few older lower leaves are normal while the root system recovers.

Watering

Water アエオニウム 'ディープパープル' thoroughly, moistening the whole root area and letting all excess escape through the drainage holes. Allow the compost to dry before watering again. Follow our 3 D's method: drench, drain and dry.

Aeoniums do their main growing in spring and autumn, slowing right down through the coldest UK winter weather and pausing in high summer heat. Check the compost regularly through the growing season, but water by how dry it feels rather than to a fixed timetable.

Keep アエオニウム 'ディープパープル' much drier during hot summer weather, when it becomes semi-dormant, and through cold winter conditions. Water in the morning so excess moisture can drain and evaporate before temperatures fall overnight.

Light and position

Provide アエオニウム 'ディープパープル' with 日なた - 5時間以上の日当たり. Suitable positions may include バルコニー、パティオ、コンサバトリー. Good, strong light keeps the single trunk sturdy and upright and holds the terminal rosette tight and well shaped.

Avoid dark positions, which cause the tall stem to lean and stretch towards the light with nowhere else to draw energy from. Rotate the pot regularly, introduce stronger sun gradually and give temporary shade during intense heatwaves.

Compost and drainage

Plant アエオニウム 'ディープパープル' in a free-draining mixture of roughly 60% multi-purpose compost and 40% horticultural grit or perlite, our recommended blend for Aeoniums. Always choose a pot with unrestricted drainage holes.

One large rosette on a tall trunk makes a mature single-stemmed Aeonium distinctly top-heavy. Select a broad, well-weighted, stable container that gives the roots room without being excessively large; surplus compost simply holds moisture and increases the risk of root problems.

We prefer terracotta for these specimens. The extra weight steadies the tall plant, while the porous walls aerate the compost and encourage steady root development.

Feeding

Fresh compost should feed アエオニウム 'ディープパープル' for roughly three to six months. After that, apply a balanced liquid feed at half the recommended strength every two weeks while the plant is in active growth through its spring and autumn growing season.

Apply feed when the compost is already moist, ideally just after watering, so the nutrients spread around the roots without scorching them.

Stop feeding during summer dormancy and prolonged cold weather. アエオニウム 'ディープパープル' cannot use extra nutrients while growth is paused, and soft new growth is more vulnerable to rot and frost.

Winter care

The recorded minimum temperature for アエオニウム 'ディープパープル' is -2°C. Being frost-tender, move it into a bright, airy and protected position before conditions fall below this level; it is not hardy like a Sempervivum. A tall specimen is best given settled winter quarters in a greenhouse, conservatory or bright, cool room.

Keep the compost much drier through winter, watering only around every six weeks on average, as cold, wet roots rot readily. If using horticultural fleece during short cold spells, drape it loosely so it does not crush or press against the single main rosette.

Summer care

Prolonged hot weather can send アエオニウム 'ディープパープル' into summer semi-dormancy. The rosette tightens, growth stops and the foliage may deepen in colour. This is a normal response to heat and does not mean the plant is dying.

Move it out of intense afternoon sun if the leaves scorch. Reduce watering while the rosette stays closed and stop feeding until active growth returns. A half-strength liquid seaweed feed misted over the foliage in the cool of early morning, every couple of weeks, acts as a tonic that helps アエオニウム 'ディープパープル' cope with heat stress without wetting the roots.

When temperatures cool and the rosette begins to reopen, gradually return to normal watering. Check the compost first, as a dormant plant may still hold moisture around its roots.

Repotting

Repot アエオニウム 'ディープパープル' in spring or early autumn when it becomes root-bound, unstable or too large for its container. Remove loose, tired compost, replace it with a fresh, free-draining mixture and choose a new pot only moderately larger than the last.

If the trunk has developed a long bare section, it can be planted approximately 10-15cm deeper to encourage additional roots and improve stability. Never bury the leaves or the base of the rosette.

Support the trunk throughout, and lift the plant by the stem rather than pulling on the rosette. The single stem carries the plant's whole structure and can split if bent or placed under excessive pressure.

Common problems

A leaning trunk, loose rosette or unusually stretched growth usually means アエオニウム 'ディープパープル' needs more light. Move it gradually somewhere brighter and rotate the pot regularly to keep it growing upright.

An unstable plant may have a weak root system, unsuitable compost or a pot too light for the tall rosette. Check the roots, improve drainage and use a broad, well-weighted container.

Soft stems, blackened tissue and sudden collapse are usually linked to excess moisture, especially in cold weather or summer dormancy. Remove affected material where possible and let the healthy tissue and compost dry before watering again.

Older lower leaves drying and dropping is normal, gradually exposing the trunk and giving the tree-like look. Importantly, Aeonium rosettes are monocarpic: a rosette dies after flowering. Because アエオニウム 'ディープパープル' has a single main rosette, flowering can end the life of the whole plant, so collect seed or take a top cutting before the flower spike develops.
