Field Notes

Description:

When I first arrived I was awed by what I thought were cacti that looked like flowers. I understand that it is a succulent, but at the moment that is all I know of this beautiful rose with the succulent petals.

Tangela, would you please consider removing this spotting from the Flowering Cacti and Succulents mission? It has no flowers or fruit, and the goal of the mission is to capture spottings including them.

Aeonium zwartkop a succulent. I had that succulent in California, love them, in the sun they turned the color purple/blue, they did not required much watering, Grows like 3 feet tall or maybe more but I would cut the flowers and placed them in soil to start new ones.
