English
It is a very decorative and extremely particular succulent, made up of long, thin, purplish ramifications, which, with growth, tend to take on a falling aspect, creating beautiful cascades.
The entire length of the stems is covered with small spindle-shaped leaves, of a particular glaucous green color, which, when exposed to the sun, becomes bright and purple!
In spring these shades contrast nicely with the long peduncles, full of white flowers.
It is a real must-have for succulent lovers, perfect for decorating any style: just place it in a hanging pot or on a shelf to enjoy its spectacular and unique cascades!
Care
Generally likes direct sunlight.
It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures, never below 5 °C, for this reason it is recommended to place it in sheltered but bright places during the winter period.
Almost all species of this genus need very scarce watering all year round, when it is evident that the plant needs it.
The soil varies greatly from species to species, however in general a well draining substrate is required.
They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
