Aeonium hierrense<br />

(El Hierro Giant Houseleek)<br />

Exclusivo<br />

50 (100)cm, El Hierro Giant Houseleek is a very impressive monocarpic species native to sunny spot in<br />

rocky soils on the island of El Hierro. A species with leaves and a stem more than twice the size as the<br />

already very huge Aeonium urbicum! Its single rosette has beautiful glaucous (i.e. bluish green) leaves<br />

with some red patterns in full sun and may reach up to 1m ø (!) or even more in well-<strong>de</strong>veloped<br />

specimens with leaves up to 0.40 m in length, which makes this species, if only by its size, one of the<br />

most impressive ones in the entire genus. Its inflorescence is similar to Aeonium urbicum, yet only<br />

broa<strong>de</strong>r. Makes thousands of almost pure white tp pale rose flowers. Easily cultivated in any rich, well<br />

drained soil in a sunny spot throughout the year. In winter keep slightly drier at a minimum of some 10°C<br />

in full sun. V-VI.<br />

Aeonium holochrysum 100 (200)cm, large, branching shrub with leaf rosettes of maximum 30cm in diameter with long, light<br />

green spathulate leaves and slightly orange margins un<strong>de</strong>r sunny conditions. The large light yellow,<br />

flattened dome shaped inflorescences appear in July/August. A very showy species ! Some populations<br />

from La Palma with dry leaves which will remain at the stem for a long time have been misinterpreted as<br />

this species. In fact they make a clearly separated species (Aeonium vestitum, see below). Plants offered<br />

here correspond to a real Aeonium holochrysum population on Tenerife, Valle <strong>de</strong> la Orotava on the North<br />

si<strong>de</strong> of this island at 400m.<br />

100 (150)cm, the real species from Western Morocco and not the red-leafed cultivar, commonly sold<br />

un<strong>de</strong>r this name by all nurseries. It is looking very similar to Aeonium manriqueorum or Aeonium<br />

holochrysum, but has more oblongate lanceolate leaves and branches at 1m in height with several dome<br />

shaped sulphurous yellow inflorescences. These are the first specimens ever brought to the public, only<br />

very few plants are available.<br />

Aeonium lancerottense 50 (100)cm, Lanzarote Giant Houseleek grows in pure lava formations and is a very rare and highly<br />

(Lanzarote Giant Houseleek) endangered species on the island of Lanzarote, due to increasing touristic activities in its habitat. The<br />

specimen shown on the photo is still being a young plant, perhaps some 2 years old. Adult, floweringsized<br />

plants will reach up to 1m and more in height and will look nothing at all like a member of the usually<br />

small and shrubby Crassulaceae ! For a rather inorganic soil in full sun. Mirador <strong>de</strong> Haría (400 m).<br />

Range in the Northwest of Tenerife. It is one of the smaller species, growing only up to some 30cm in<br />

which share its habitat on Tenerife. It has larger, but fewer yellow flowers as other Aeonium species<br />

which will show in July and August. Igueste <strong>de</strong> San Andrés, 400 m.<br />
