Description:

It is a rare and particular succulent plant, very different from other Dudleyas for its very fleshy and short leaves. In nature it grows on the Cedros Island in Mexico and lives up to 100 years, in fact it is also called 'Cedros island liveforever'. D. pachyphytum grows in the shape of a small rosette and branches out at the base over time. Its thick leaves are oval, rounded on the edges and covered with a white powder (pruinescence) that protects the plant from harmful UV rays. In summer its beautiful whitish green flowers bloom.

Plant care:

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

It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 7 °C, for this reason it is recommended to shelter it during the winter period.

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

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

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