Originating in the Cape Province of South Africa, Cotyledon Tomentosa's leaves are unique for their soft, fuzzy texture and three pointed tips, which turn a vibrant red when exposed to direct sunlight. This succulent species has been aptly named "Kitten Paws" due to the similarity of its small leaves to the paws of a kitten.
