Aeonium 'Superbang' first known as Aeonium 'Oujiali' variegated, is a captivating plant hailing from Chinese breeding programs , and thought to be a variegated form of 'Velour'. This remarkable Aeonium offers an incredible colour palette that morphs and transforms throughout its life cycle.
In its early stages, Aeonium 'Superbang' presents a vibrant lime green crown with dark leaf centres and pale edges. As the plant matures, the colours evolve into various shades of red. The leaf centres turn deep burgundy, and the pale variegation shifts into a bright mahogany red. Lower leaves can even take on an almost black appearance, with the variegated margins remaining a striking mahogany red, creating a contrasting effect that adds to its allure.
The transformation continues with the seasons. During cooler months or in low light levels, the leaves take on a lime green and pale yellow hue. As warmer months approach, the central green portions deepen into a brown/purple colour, with the yellow outer margins intensifying into a vivid, glowing shade. This unique combination of colours makes Aeonium 'Superbang' distinct and appealing.
Caring for Aeonium 'Super Bang' requires attention to lighting conditions to preserve its characteristic colours. Good light exposure without the harsh summer sun is recommended, as overexposure can lead to washed-out colours or darkening, temporarily losing the signature yellow variegation.
