Succulent Cotyledon Orbiculata Ophylla LADY FINGERS 1 Fuzzy 3" Live Silver Plant

Description: Cotyledon orbiculata ‘Oophylla’, also known as Lady Fingers or Round-leafed Navel Wort, is an attractive succulent subshrub. It features branched stems with grey-green leaves covered in a white, waxy layer. At the rounded tip of each leaf, there’s a dark purple mark. This plant grows up to 6 inches (15 cm) tall and forms a colony. The leaves are opposite, somewhat egg-shaped, and can reach up to 2.2 inches (5.5 cm) in length. In full sun, they take on a burgundy hue. Clusters of pretty orange-red flowers appear in winter on short erect stalks above the foliage. These tubular flowers have recurved petals and are usually about 0.8 inches (2 cm) long1. Cotyledon orbiculata ‘Oophylla’ originates from locations in Richtersveld and adjacent coastal regions in the Northern Cape province of South Africa and Sperrgebiet (for the synonym Cotyledon ‘Boegoeberg’) in southwestern Namibia. It’s hardy in USDA zones 9b to 11b (from 25°F / -3.9°C to 50°F / +10°C). To care for it, provide well-draining soil, plenty of sunlight, and be cautious not to overwater. It’s a rewarding garden and indoor subject, practically independent of irrigation except in full desert conditions SHIPS BARE ROOT FROM HOLLISTER, CALIFORNIA ~ SEE STORE FOR MORE ITEMS
