Graptoveria 'Silver Star' is an elegant hybrid succulent, resulting from a cross between Graptopetalum filiferum and Echeveria agavoides, both originally native to Mexico. Its unique appearance is marked by long, silvery-green leaves that can be tipped with pink or red, when grown in good light, providing an aesthetic appeal that makes it a graceful addition to any collection. During spring, the succulent grows pink and white flowers, adding to its allure.
The tight rosettes of Graptoveria 'Silver Star' grow up to 10 cm in diameter, forming a clump and producing a distinctive pinkish bristle at the tips when fully grown. This succulent thrives in full sun to partial shade and has typical water needs for its kind. At a mature height of 7.5 cm and a width of 15 cm, it's perfect for those seeking to add a touch of refinement to their garden without overwhelming the space.
In Australia's favourable climates, the Graptoveria ‘Silver Star’ can become a captivating feature in your garden or indoor space. It's not cold hardy and prefers temperatures between 18 to 27 degrees Celsius. During extremely hot temperatures or the summer season, the plant becomes dormant. With proper care and sunlight, the leaf tips develop a reddish hue, contrasting the green and adding to its charm. This succulent is more than just a beautiful plant; it's a testament to nature's creativity and a genuine asset for plant enthusiasts.
