    • Appearance:
      • It's a low-growing succulent that forms dense clumps of tiny rosettes.
      • The leaves are small, fleshy, and often a green color, though they can take on reddish or purplish hues under sufficient light.
      • It's known for its "tower-like" or "pagoda" appearance due to the tightly packed leaves.
    • Flowers:
      • It produces small, star-shaped flowers that can be yellow, orange, or purple.
      • Flowering typically occurs in the summer.
    • Size:
      • It's a small plant, typically reaching a height of around 12 cm.

    Cultivation:

    • Light:
      • It prefers bright, indirect light. Direct, harsh sunlight can cause damage.
    • Watering:
      • Like most succulents, it requires well-draining soil and infrequent watering.
      • Overwatering is a common problem and can lead to root rot.
      • Watering should be reduced during the winter.
    • Soil:
      • Well-draining soil is essential. A mix designed for succulents or cacti is ideal.
    • Temperature:
      • It prefers moderate temperatures and is not frost-hardy.
    • Propagation:
      • It can be propagated from seeds or offsets.

    Key Considerations:

      • It's native to the Canary Islands, where it grows in crevices on shaded cliffs and rocks.
    • Care:
      • It's considered relatively easy to care for, making it a good choice for succulent enthusiasts.

      • It's often grown as a houseplant or in rock gardens.
