Aeonium wildpretii

A natural hybrid Aeonium (Aeonium × wildpretii) from the Canary Islands, described by Bañares in 1986. Grow it like its Tenerife relatives: bright sun, mild temperatures, growth in the cool wet winter and a dry, semi-dormant summer.

Where it grows wild

As a natural hybrid it grows where its parent species meet, presumably on rocky slopes and cliffs in the Canarian lowland and mid-elevation scrub; no specific habitat notes were found.

No wild records carry an elevation; the climate is taken from one coastal site on Tenerife.
