Aeonium 'Kiwi Pinwheel' – Colorful Rosettes for Rock Gardens

Aeonium 'Kiwi Pinwheel'

A delightful succulent, Aeonium 'Kiwi Pinwheel' forms bright green rosettes with creamy yellow margins, creating a pinwheel effect. In spring, creamy yellow flower spikes 4–5 inches tall emerge from the center of mature rosettes. Perfect for rock gardens, containers, and desert-themed plantings where its colorful foliage shines year-round.

Growing Conditions

Light: Full Sun
Height: 2 feet or less

Plant in well-drained soil. Water moderately during active growth (winter/spring), reduce in summer dormancy. Protect from hard frost. The rosettes die after flowering but produce offsets to continue the clump.
