Species files

11 files across 8 genera. Each one carries the same ten parameters, so you can hold two plants side by side and see which one actually wants more light rather than guessing from a care label. The number beside each name is the mature rosette diameter in centimetres.

Echeveria

Sedum

trailing and mat-forming stonecrops

Haworthia

low-light rosettes with translucent leaf windows

Crassula

stacked and woody-stemmed jades

winter growers with a strict summer shutdown

Pachyphytum
