x Sedeveria 'Green Rose' – A low growing succulent that forms a mat of 1 ˝ wide perfectly symmetrical and tight light green colored rosettes that resemble green rose flowers. In summer appear the bright yellow star shaped flowers on branched inflorescences that rise just above the foliage.
Plant in full coastal sun to light shade in a well-drained soil. This plant has proven hardy at least 25° F but likely is hardier - if you know how hardy this plant is please let us know. Great container plant. Looks very similar to Sedeveria x hummellii or 'Hummelii'.
Sedeveria 'Green Rose' is an older intergeneric hybrid made from a cross between, Echeveria derenbergii and Sedum palmeri. This parentage really makes more sense visually than how we originally listed it as a Sedum pachyphyllum and Echeveria derenbergii cross. It has been in the horticultural trade for many years as evidenced by its listing in Alfred Byrd Graf’s 1968 edition of Exotica.
We have grown this great small groundcover since 2007 and thank Carol Bornstein for sharing this gem of a plant with us.
