Cyan Succulent

Succulent type: Leaf succulent (Stores water in its leaves)

This large leaf succulent grows up to 84 feet (25.6 meters) tall. The perforated stem is silver, and is covered in copious amounts of flexible blood red spines. The smooth-edged, slender, pointed leaves are found in indigo, pink and blue varieties. Very large amounts of them grow from the base in tight-packed layers. The leaves are durable, but are very difficult to pull away.

It is steady-growing, taking 5 years to reach maturity. Once mature, several flowers with solid cyan petals decorated with purple lines and a drab purple central disk grow at the top, reappearing every year. The flower head is made up of 11 petals in raised layers. It has a weak scent that smells like rotten eggs.

The leaf succulent's skin is rock-hard, the gold flesh is rubbery, and the silver sap is thin.


It is almost impossible to grow indoors.
