Aeonium goochiae

A small, branching, sticky-leaved Aeonium endemic to La Palma in the Canary Islands, growing on shaded rocks and cliffs in the humid north-east. Like most Aeonium it grows in the cool, damp winter and slows in the dry summer. It wants bright but not baking light, mild temperatures and a well-drained mix.
