Description
This succulent forms a tight rosette 2' x 2', resembling a cabbage. Stout gray leaves are edged with small teeth; leaves have a sharp terminal red spine. It prefers full sun to part shade with well draining soil. Green flowers shoot straight up the plant indicating the demise of the plant. Small colonies form around the "mother" plant.

Water Saving Tip:
Check your irrigation controller once a month, and adjust as necessary.
Most plants require only one-third as much water in winter as they do in summer.
