Graptopetalum Bronz (Alpenglow)
Graptopetalum Bronz (Alpenglow)
Graptopetalum 'Alpenglow' is a stunning hybrid cultivar displaying exceptional color transformation throughout the seasons. This rosette-forming succulent features thick, pointed leaves that develop intense bronze, copper, and pinkish-purple hues when grown in bright light with moderate stress. The powdery farina coating on leaves creates a beautiful matte finish and provides UV protection. Rosettes multiply readily through offsets, creating attractive clusters. Small star-shaped flowers in white or pale pink appear on arching stems in spring, adding seasonal interest.

Plants may be slightly larger or smaller than the pot they are grown in, depending on availability or time of year. Sedums such as Cherry Tart and Lime Zinger are dormant in the winter, i.e. they wilt, start dropping leaves, and look dead. It's simply a survival mechanism that help succulents stay alive over the cold winter and gear up for warmer days ahead.
