Details
Aptenia cordifolia 'variegata' is a vigorous succulent with trailing, creamy-edged fleshy leaves and rose-red colored flowers. Blooms all summer, adds a different texture to your succulent collection, and is very easy to care for. Can be grown in sun or shade outdoors, or as a houseplant in a sunny window. Fantastic in succulent combination planters too. If kept indoors, needs a sunny window and very little water (allow soil to dry out thoroughly). Faster growing.
