The variegated shape of this succulent presents the typical lighter areas in the exact points where the chlorophyll is absent; such areas will never be identical from one plant to another, thus making each exemplar absolutely unique and, for this, very sought after by collectors. It is a succulent with slow growth and low bearing; its short and thin leaves, round and slightly wider at the base, grow in pairs of two, alternating in orientation and forming small rosettes slightly depressed in the center. The epidermis is of a nice light green, with a thick darker dotting and characteristic well defined greyish margins. The flowering takes place on long stems, where corollas of small cream white flowers are generated.
