Descripción
🌱 Morphology
Horticultural cultivar with a unique appearance, featuring small, dense, and very compact rosettes, approximately 5–8 cm in diameter. Its leaves are thick, fleshy, obovate, and slightly pointed, with margins curved toward the center and arranged in a spiral, like the petals of a closed rose. The surface has a whitish powdery coating that gives it grayish-green or glaucous tones; under abundant light, pink and lilac hues may appear. As it ages, it develops a visible stem, naturally loses its lower leaves, and may produce offsets, forming clusters of rosettes.
🌍 Distribution, habitat, and family
Horticultural cultivar, documented in the nursery of N. Kleinmichel and S. Grätz in Wörth, Germany. It has no natural distribution. Its exact parentage is not confirmed; it is considered a possible mutation of ×Graptoveria ‘Titubans’, a hybrid associated with Graptopetalum paraguayense and Echeveria derenbergii, but this lineage has not been proven. Crassulaceae family, ×Graptoveria notogenus.
❄️ Temperature
USDA 9b (−3.9 °C) as a general reference, not as a guarantee of tolerance. It is preferable to protect it from frost and damp cold, especially if the substrate is not completely dry.
☀️ Lighting
Soft full sun, with gradual acclimatization. Approximate PAR DLI of 15–25 mol·m⁻²·day⁻¹. Sufficient lighting helps maintain compact rosettes and may intensify pink hues. In summer, it is advisable to protect it from scorching sun and promote good ventilation.
💧 Growth cycle and watering
Winter dormancy. Growth is usually more active during the mild seasons. It is recommended to water thoroughly and allow the substrate to dry out completely before the next watering. In winter, watering should be spaced out, and persistent moisture in the rosette should be avoided. The gradual loss of basal leaves and the lengthening of the stem are part of its natural development.
🌸 Flowering
Produces inflorescences with small pale yellow flowers, often with a greenish line on the petals, generally in spring. Reliable data are not available on the age of the first flowering, self-fertility, or reblooming multiple times during the same season.
🌿 Nutrition
During the active growth period, Desert CHOICE® Succulents is recommended, applied after watering. Before flowering, it can be supplemented with Desert CHOICE® Flowering. Fertilizing is not recommended during winter dormancy.
