When the plant is mature enough, a 5-8ft Flower spike may form in Summer producing deep Purple to Red flowers, which last until late Autumn. (the buds are edible).
Please Note: Succulents change colour throughout the year and the plants we deliver can look different from the pictures. All plants are shipped bare root (without soil).
