Graptopetalum Paraguayense - Pearls

Graptopetalum Paraguayense 'Pearls' is a stunning succulent cherished for its beautiful rosettes of light silvery-grey leaves that can blush with pink in bright light. This variety is treasured for its pearlescent, colour-shifting foliage and easy-going nature.

A natural powdery coating, called farina, covers the leaves, protecting them from intense sun and giving them a soft, ethereal glow. It's a low-growing, branching plant that forms trailing stems over time, making it an excellent choice for hanging baskets, rock gardens, or as a "spiller" in mixed container arrangements.
