Aeonium

Evergreen succulent, either with a single stem, branching or stemless. Fleshy leaves and star-shaped flowers. Most are not hardy, but in the milder, wetter areas of the UK they could survive outside. Grow in pots otherwise. Native to Africa, around 36 species, with around 30 endemic to the Canary islands. With mountain barriers, narrow coastline and canyons, this has encouraged plant speciation in such a localised area.
