Turn your rock garden into a natural masterpiece with a plant that combines exoticism, elegance and easy maintenance.
In a rock garden, the aeonium is a real star, attracting all eyes with its fleshy rosettes and vibrant colours that range from soft green to deep black. Its graphic habit and drought resistance make it an ideal plant for adding an exotic, modern touch to your outdoor landscaping.
Use well-drained soil Aeoniums hate standing water. Mix coarse sand or gravel into the rock garden soil to ensure excellent drainage and prevent root rot. Protect from frost If your rock garden is located in a frost-prone region, protect aeoniums in winter with mulch or by covering them with winter fleece. You can also choose varieties that are more resistant to the cold.
With its ability to adapt to difficult growing conditions, aeonium is perfect for stabilising embankments while enhancing the landscape.
