How to grow Pinwheel aeonium 'Variegata'

  • Dappled Sun

  • Low

Variegata likes a position of dappled sun and remember to apply water fairly sparingly. Keep in mind when planting that Variegata is thought of as tender, so remember to wait until your soil is warm and the night time temperature is well above freezing before moving outside. Variegata requires a soil ph of 6.1 - 7.1 meaning it does best in weakly acidic soil - weakly alkaline soil.

Growing Variegata from seed

Most cacti and succulents can be propagated by small stem cuttings that are allowed to dry out for a few days or weeks before replanting in slightly moist, well-drained potting soil
Many succulents can be grown from leaf cuttings, or even individual leaves that sprout new plants at their base when put into contact with moist soil
Seed may be sown onto well-drained potting soil and kept lightly moist until they germinate, then transplant into small containers

Transplanting Variegata

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Variegata is a tender plant.
