Copperleaf

This short leaf succulent grows up to 5 feet (1.5 meters) tall. The stiff, pointed stem is orange-yellow, and is covered in handfuls of flexible red spines. The lumpy leaves are either gold, or grey with magenta streaks. Large amounts of them grow on thick, gnarled, copper branches that are short and thin. The leaves are hardy, and detach easily.

It is steady-growing, taking 13 months to reach maturity. Once mature, and only under the right conditions, a single flower with orange petals on the lower layer and aquamarine petals decorated with azure dots on the inner layer. The central disk is silver grows at the top, reappearing after 5 years, but only when the conditions are right again. The flower head is an uncoordinated mess of up to 10 curved petals. It has a mildly strong scent that smells like marzipan.

The leaf succulent's skin is thick, the grey flesh is rough, and the peach sap is thin and causes vomiting if consumed.
