Graptopetalum Rusbyi (Ghost Plant" or "Mother of Pearl Plant)
Graptopetalum rusbyi, also known as the San Francisco River Leatherpetal, is a charming succulent native to Arizona and northern Mexico. This rosette-forming succulent features plump, fleshy leaves that are typically a pale green color but can blush pink or lavender when exposed to ample sunlight. The leaves are arranged in a tight, symmetrical rosette, creating a visually appealing geometric form.
In the springtime, Graptopetalum rusbyi produces tall, slender flower stalks adorned with clusters of star-shaped flowers. These delicate blooms are a pale yellow color with reddish-brown markings towards the center, adding a touch of elegance to the plant's overall appearance.
This succulent is relatively easy to care for, thriving in well-draining soil and full sun to partial shade. It is drought-tolerant and can withstand periods of neglect, making it a suitable choice for beginners or those with busy lifestyles. Graptopetalum rusbyi is a versatile plant that can be grown in various settings, including rock gardens, container plantings, and hanging baskets.
The succulent plant housed in the red pot comes in a 130mm diameter container. While the image provides a representative depiction of what you will receive, but may vary slightly because no two succulents are the same.
