Aeonium goochiae 'Ballerina'



21st September 2017


comes from La Palma in the Canary Isles, growing near to the coast, tolerating low temperatures but not really frost. This plant outside died when the snow settled on it through winter. I have a young plant growing in a cold greenhouse a few feet away that was undamaged. 'Ballerina' is a variegated form that has collected a number of additional synonyms along the way. I think that 'Ballerina' is the most defensible name but I could easily be wrong.
