Aeonium ‘Big Bang’ is simply stunning!
A variant of Aeonium ‘Schwarzkopf’ which originated in South Korea. The vivid Green and almost-Black looking leaves are a mutation rather than a variegation which gives this wonderful new generation of Aeonium its own unique, bold appearance.
The leaves of Aeonium ‘Big Bang’ are completely different from the next. Some have streaks of lime green running from the base of the leaf right through to the top, whilst other leaves have random sparks of green flecks throughout the dark leaves.
Each offset can be unique, some can be completely green, others can be completely black giving this plant a strangely beautiful appearance. The unstable nature makes it more difficult to propagate, this is one of the main reasons that this plant is so rare.
Aeonium ‘Big Bang’ really comes into its own during the summertime, as the dark pigments enhance in strong light, the green flecks and stripes become more and more visible.
The Aeonium ‘Big Bang’ grows almost identical to Aeonium ‘Schwarzkopf’, as they both grow on tall stems that offset when given plenty of water and feed during the growing seasons, which are Spring and Autumn.
Each plant has its own unique appearance, you may receive one that looks slightly different from the images.
Grown in 9cm Pots.
