aeoniumaeonium
genusgenusDistinctive succulent plants characterized by their rosette-forming growth pattern and their ability to branch into multiple flower-like clusters of leaves. These architectural plants can range from small, compact forms to larger, tree-like structures with thick stems.
Etymology
The name 'Aeonium' comes from the ancient Greek word 'aionios' meaning 'eternal' or 'everlasting,' referring to the plant's resilient nature and its ability to thrive in harsh conditions.
Interesting fact!
During periods of drought, the rosettes can close up like a paper fan to reduce water loss, then reopen when conditions improve.
