Cottonleaf

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

This enormous leaf succulent grows up to 161 feet (49.1 meters) tall. The narrow stem is yellow, and is covered in many flexible muted orange spines. The jagged-edged, 8 pointed leaves are found in orange, pale purple and aquamarine varieties. Small bunches of them grow from the base in no particular order. The leaves are rigid, but take little effort to detach.

It is steady-growing, taking 3 years to reach maturity. Once mature, several flowers with solid pale purple petals and a bronze central disk grow at the top, reappearing once every 4 years. The flower head is made up of 46 petals; the lower layer of petals are flat, while the upper layers form a tight star. It has a scent whose strength depends on external factors, such as soil quality and rain frequency that smells like cotton.

The leaf succulent's skin is delicate, the blue flesh is rough, and the pink sap is thin.


It is suitable for creating flexible, durable textiles
