Description:

It is a beautiful succulent, considered among the most resistant to cold, as it is used to growing in nature at high altitudes, among the alpine rocks. It consists of tiny fleshy and tapered leaves, similar to fingers, of a bluish-green color, which do not exceed 2 centimeters in height but rather tend to develop large cushions of leaflets, facing upwards. The real highlight of this "jewel of ice" appears in early spring, when large magenta flowers bloom that often cover almost the entire plant, creating lively expanses even where other specimens could never survive!

Plant care:

It likes an exposure to full sun in rather airy locations.

They are very resistant to the most extreme temperatures: they grow comfortably in hot climates and resist the temperatures even up to -5 °C only if the soil is dry.

Water moderately but only when the soil is completely dry. It is enough to water it once a week in spring and summer, and suspend watering completely in winter.

The best soil is a well draining one, for example formed by a mix of peat and pumice so that water does not stagnate.

They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
