Graptoveria Fred Ives Crested
Graptoveria Fred Ives crested is the cristata form of the popular Fred Ives common to many gardeners. It is much loved as a hardy shrub forming cultivar that is a very vigorous grower in the garden and offsets freely to produce a large clump with many heads, that adds a lot of colour and interest throughout the year.
Graptoveria Fred Ives crested is not quite as vigorous as the non crested form but it will still form quite a large clump in time. It is just as hardy and even more beautiful due to its colourful finer foliage with many crested heads forming on a single plant.
This crested form of Fred Ives, will occasionally throw out offshoots of the regular form these being the well known Fred Ives rosettes we all know and love. These can be cut off so they don't overtake the slower growing cristata. They can be easily propagated, as too cuttings from the crest itself.

Succulents naturally change in colour, size and form throughout the year. Many develop richer colours and more compact growth during periods of seasonal stress, particularly through cooler months and brighter conditions, while warmer or lower-light conditions may produce greener, softer growth.
The plant you receive may therefore vary from the product images depending on the season, its stage of growth and current growing conditions. These natural variations are part of the character of living plants and do not affect their quality or health.
