Comments:
Suitable for containers both indoors and out. This succulent with fleshy oval red-margined, light green leaves has fragrant, yellow flowers in winter and spring. Should be kept relatively dry, except during summer when it is kept moist as it is flowering and growing. Mother plant gives birth to pups after flowering and then dies.
