Aeonium ‘Swartzkop’

I took these beautiful cuttings in August last year from a clients plant. They should, ideally be taken in spring, so it goes to show that rules are there to be broken. These were potted up today into a John Innes No 3 potting compost with 50% horticultural grit. These stunning plants will be planted outside in the summer…

Check back here later to see how they’ve grown.
