This plant is a small, offsets-forming succulent with lance-shaped, grey-green leaves. The leaf margins are typically reddish and adorned with soft, reddish teeth, giving it a distinctive 'crocodile' or 'alligator' skin appearance.

Care Instructions

This succulent thrives in well-draining soil and prefers full sun to partial shade. Water thoroughly when the soil is dry to the touch, and reduce watering in cooler months. It is drought-tolerant and sensitive to overwatering, which can lead to root rot. Protect from frost.
