Aeonium decorum (Green Pinwheel)

Aeonium decorum (Green Pinwheel) is a bushy, rounded, well-branched, evergreen succulent perennial forming low clumps of small rosettes, 2 in. wide (5 cm). The fleshy, glossy pale green, reddish-tinted leaves display red edges. This Aeonium offsets readily, spreading over time to form a lovely ground cover. Attractive when not blooming, it is particularly striking when it produces soft pink racemes of small, star-shaped flowers in late spring or summer.

• Grows up to 1-2 ft. tall and wide (30-60 cm).
• Easily grown in sandy, dry to medium moisture, well-drained soils in full sun. Tolerates light shade and poor soils. While drought tolerant, Aeoniums require more regular watering than other succulents since they have a relatively small, shallow root system.
• Aeoniums may go dormant in summer and do not require any water, except in excessively dry conditions. When in growth water moderately and feed every two or three weeks with a balanced liquid feed. During the winter months, restrict water to just enough to keep the foliage from shriveling.
• Aeoniums are monocarpic: the rosette flowers once and dies thereafter. However, it may take several years before this happens and not all rosettes bloom at the same time.
• Excellent for rock gardens, succulent gardens or Mediterranean gardens. Perfect for containers where spectacular floral arrangements can be created.
• Deer resistant and salt tolerant.
• Virtually pest and disease free. 
• Propagate by cuttings of rosettes kept at 64ºF (18ºC) and barely moist until rooted.
