A bold, architectural succulent with dramatic, velvety rosettes, Aeonium arboreum ‘Velour’ is all about contrast and colour. Deep burgundy to purple outer leaves frame a softer green centre, intensifying to near-black tones in strong light. This branching, shrub-like aeonium forms multiple rosettes on upright stems, creating height and structure in both indoor collections and outdoor summer displays. A true statement plant that looks far more high-maintenance than it actually is.

Plant Care 

Light: A sunny spot outdoors or a bright spot indoors.  

Watering: Let these plants dry out completely between waterings, then give them a good soak, letting the water drain completely. Less water for these plants means better colours, so don't water too much. 

Temperature: 18-23°C is perfect for these plants. Try not to let your Aeonium go below 5°C, so if you have them out for spring and summer, be sure to bring them inside. 

Potting: A quick draining mix is suitable for these succulents. Our Savvy Succa is a great choice for this plant.

Hot tips: Aeoniums die after flowering, so take cuttings so your plant can live on!

Pet Friendly: YES
