Cotyledon White Sprite

$20.00

The Cotyledon 'White Sprite' is a distinctive and charming succulent prized for its unusual, vertical growth habit and striking coloration. This captivating cultivar forms small, upright clusters of thick, finger-shaped leaves that are a frosty, powdery white-green hue.

What makes this plant truly unique are the tips of the leaves, which are naturally edged in deep red or brown. When the plant receives ample bright sun or experiences cool temperatures, these tips blush a vibrant magenta, creating a stunning color contrast against the pale, chalky foliage.

A delightful accent plant for collectors and beginners alike, the 'White Sprite' is easy to care for and exceptionally drought-tolerant. In the fall or summer, mature plants reward you with clusters of drooping, bell-shaped flowers in beautiful shades of salmon-orange to red. It remains a small, slow-to-moderate grower, making it perfect for windowsills, container arrangements, or tucked into a rock garden.

All potted plants are local pickup only. Shipped plants will be bare root (no pot or soil).
