Botanic Name:
Dudleya cymosa cymosa Common Name: Live-Forever Size: 6"h x 8"w Sun: Sun-pt. shd H20: Occ.H2O/dry This wide ranging species is found in varying forms on dry rocky outcrops around the Bay area, as well as much of the state. It is tolerant of hot inland conditions, but best if given occasional water during the dry months. May go semi-dormant in full sun; looks best year round in light shade. Expect a show of bright yellow to red flowers in Spring. In your garden give it a very well-drained site and top dress with pebbles to prevent stem rot. An excellent container specimen as well.
