It’s a perennial dwarf plant, which in nature grows into beautiful carpets on the rocks. Its leaves are of variable size and appearance depending on climatic and environmental conditions. Usually it has fleshy, lanceolate and pointed leaves, of greyish-green color enriched by dark spots on the upper surface. The variegated shape of this succulent presents the typical lighter areas in the exact points where the chlorophyll is absent: these characteristics will never be the same from one plant to another, therefore each exemplar will be absolutely unique and, for this reason, highly sought after by collectors. The foliage is arranged in an irregular rosette, dotted along the margins by thin whitish hair. From late summer to late autumn, small cup-shaped flowers bloom, the shades of which vary from white to burgundy-red.
