Flowering Season
From Early Summer TO Late Summer
In the warmer months, this plant will flower and the small flower heads will last until the temperature starts to fall. They may become dormant as it gets cooler and the daytime light reduces.
Planting
From Early Spring TO Early Spring
Cuttings are difficult to root thus pot grown plants should be sought from specialist (succulent) growers.
