Aeonium dendroides

Aeonium dendroides is not a recognised species name in GBIF and is probably a trade or misapplied label for a branching, tree-like Aeonium. Grow it like the shrubby Canary Island aeoniums: a winter grower that wants bright light, mild temperatures and a dry, partly dormant summer.

Where it grows wild
