Description
This striking succulent, known as the Propeller Plant, shows off grey-green, propeller-shaped leaves and – when mature – dramatic clusters of vivid red flowers. The ‘Giant Form’ is larger and bolder than the standard species, making it a standout specimen for sunny windowsills or summer patio displays. A true showpiece when in bloom.
Plant Care
Light: Loves bright light, including direct sun, which will bring out its best colour. Indoors, a south or west-facing window is ideal.
Watering: Let soil dry out fully between waterings. Water sparingly in winter when growth slows.
Temperature: Prefers 18–26°C; can tolerate brief dips to 5°C if kept dry. Protect from frost.
Potting: Best in our A Sandy Loam mix for sharp drainage.
Hot tips: Provide plenty of light to keep its compact shape. Overwatering is the main cause of trouble — think “desert, not swamp.” Flowers in summer with show-stopping red clusters if given plenty of light.
Pet Friendly: No – toxic if ingested. 🚫🐾
