The Aeonium 'Floresens' would like watering between once and twice per week in the peak growing season. It is advised to reduce watering when plants are dormant due to a heatwave and to significantly reduce/ stop watering when conditions are frosty.
Feeding
Feeding
Aeonium 'Floresens' likes to be fed to bring out its best forms and colours. We recommend feeding with a liquid seaweed feed every 2 weeks in the main growing season from April to September. A feed we recommend is the one from our friends at LittleGreenSeaweed.
Ideal soil
Ideal soil
Aeonium 'Floresens' needs free draining soil to thrive. We recommend a mixture of 1/3 John Innes no.2, 1/3 perlite and 1/3 coconut coir. The soil mix we offer here is similar in composition to this.
Aeonium 'Floresens'
Aeonium ‘Floresens’ is a highly prized variegated form of Aeonium. We find that the plant will offset vigorously as it grows to create a beautiful form with little or no training. The variegation tends to be on the outer edges of the leaves with this striking lime-green stripe running through the middle of each leaf. Like all variegated Aeoniums, growing them in a less intense light situation away from the midday sun is preferred; it will bring out more of the variegation during the summer months. Try planting with a companion plant such as Aeonium ‘Cyclops’ or Yucca rostrata as these will act as sun umbrellas.
