Notes
Flat-topped aeonium (Aeonium tabuliforme) is a succulent for borders, containers, and low maintenance gardens. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 9 and warmer, down to about 20°F (-7°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes full sun and dry to average, sandy or loamy soil. Deer tend to browse other plants first. It is evergreen and drought tolerant, and it spreads 12 to 24 inches wide.
Pairs well with Aeonium, Paddle plant, Campfire pygmy weed, and Narrow-leaf chalksticks.
