Aquamarine Succulent
Succulent type: Leaf succulent (Stores water in its leaves)This short leaf succulent grows up to 10 feet (3.0 meters) tall. The fan-like stem is orange, and is covered in brittle light brown spines. The irregular-edged, wispy leaves are aquamarine on the sides and faded green at the center. Sparse amounts of them grow from the base in a loosely patterned way. The leaves are tough, and take some effort to detach.
It is steady-growing, taking 2 years to reach maturity. Once mature, and only under the right conditions, several flowers with petals that are gentle purple on the underside and gold on the top grow at the top, reappearing after 6 years, but only when the conditions are right again. The flower head is an uncoordinated mess of 25 petals. It has a delicate scent that smells like wet dog.
The leaf succulent's skin is delicate, the violet flesh is soft, and the indigo sap is thin.
It usually houses a colony of beneficial insects.
