Senecio (Indoor succulent plants)

The name of this widespread genus derives from the Latin word “senex”, meaning “old”, with reference to the white tufts, similar to gray hair, which it has on top of the achenes. Being a genus present all over the world, and therefore developed in very different climatic situations, it has more than a thousand species with the most varied characteristics, difficult to unite, starting from the dimensions ranging from a few centimeters to more than a meter in height, to the posture stems, up to the shape of the leaves (elongated and tapered or even completely spherical). Their worldwide diffusion allows them to be easily found to decorate your homes or beautify your gardens: if you choose this genus, its groups of flashy and lively daisy-shaped flowers, of the most varied and nuanced colors, will certainly pay off!
