Pleiospilos nelii 'Royal Flush', also affectionately known as the Split Rock succulent, captivates with its uniquely vibrant hues and intriguing form. Originating from a nursery-developed lineage, this dwarf succulent marvel is a testament to the allure of botanical cultivars, embodying both the resilience of its species and the aesthetic innovation of horticultural craft.
This cultivar boasts a compact structure, reaching up to 8 cm in height and spanning approximately 10 cm in diameter. Its most striking feature is the duo or quartet of rich, rose to purple, almost hemispherical leaves that envelop the plant's core. Each leaf is artfully dotted with tiny, dark specks, adding a textured depth to its overall appearance. These leaves, beyond their beauty, tell the story of a plant that renews itself annually, unveiling a new set of foliage each year with precise botanical rhythm.
The 'Royal Flush' distinguishes itself further during the early spring, when it presents its spectacular floral display. Large, daisy-like blossoms with deep rose petals and a contrasting white center unfurl from the plant's center in the mid-afternoon sunlight, only to close again at dusk. These flowers, up to 7.5 cm in diameter, offer not just visual splendor but also a subtle, coconut-like fragrance, adding to the sensory delight of this succulent.
Cultivation of Pleiospilos nelii 'Royal Flush' aligns with the general care principles of Mesembs, requiring well-draining soil, ample sunlight, and moderate watering reflective of its natural adaptation to seasonally available moisture. While it thrives under the warmth of the Australian sun, it exhibits a commendable tolerance to cooler temperatures, making it a versatile addition to both indoor and outdoor succulent collections.
Incorporating Pleiospilos nelii 'Royal Flush' into your garden or home introduces a piece of living art, a botanical gem that blends the wild essence of the Eastern Cape of South Africa with the refined beauty of selective cultivation. Its unique aesthetic and easy-care nature make it a delightful choice for succulent enthusiasts and casual gardeners alike, promising a striking visual accent and a touch of exotic allure to any space.

Received Pleiospilos nellii 'Royal Flush' carefully and securely packed for delivery. I really look forward to getting the white boxes that John and Norma use to pack my purchase and a generous little gift as well.. Nellii is amazing. Love her regal colour and her shape is really unusual. She came with a well established root system so I think she’ll settle into her new home without any worry. Very happy to recommend J&N. Their succulents come at a good price and I know I get quality plants every time. Thank you J&N.

Store owner replied: Thank you for your review. Be sure to use a well draining gritty mix for this one and don't over water. Enjoy watching it grow.
Love the rocks However I have always found it hard to keep it alive. I bought two this time and one has survived for now.
Pleiospilos nellii 'Royal Flush'
Store owner replied: These will rot easily if the roots are left wet for any extended period of time. So use a very gritty mix and water only when completely dry. Hope this one does better for you..
Definitely one of my favourites. Due to overwatering on my first one I bought I now realize little water is needed. So unique.
Royal Flush is fascinating. It reminds me of Sydney Opera House. I am keeping a close watch on them to see how they develop. Another unique succulent
I am fascinated by this plant. Looking forward to see how it develops.
