Senecio Scaposus 130mm

Senecio scaposus – The Silver Coral Succulent
Lustrous Texture. Sculptural Grace. Effortless Elegance.

Introduce a radiant accent to your plant collection with Senecio scaposus, affectionately known as Silver Coral. Native to South Africa, this captivating succulent dazzles with its compact form and silvery, velvet-cloaked leaves—offering a unique blend of texture, light, and low-maintenance charm.

Why It Stands Out

• Shimmering Silver Foliage
  The plant’s slender, finger-like leaves are covered in a soft, silvery-white coating, creating a luminous, frosted look that adds visual coolness and texture to any space.

• Low and Sculptural Form
  Compact and ground-hugging, it forms tidy rosettes perfect for containers, succulent groupings, or as a refined focal point in minimalist or modern gardens.

• Cheerful Summer Blooms
  In warm months, it sends up thin stalks topped with bright yellow, daisy-like flowers—bringing a sunny contrast to its icy-toned leaves.

• Exceptionally Easy to Grow
  Drought-tolerant and resilient, Senecio scaposus is an ideal choice for beginners, travelers, or anyone looking for a set-it-and-forget-it plant that still delivers visual impact.

Care Instructions

• Light: Full sun to bright, indirect light. Ample sunlight enhances its silvery sheen.

• Water: Water deeply but infrequently. Allow soil to dry out completely between waterings. Reduce watering in winter.

• Soil: Use a fast-draining cactus or succulent mix

• Temperature: Prefers warm, dry climates. Protect from frost or bring indoors during cold snaps.

• Maintenance: Virtually maintenance-free. Occasional grooming or deadheading optional.

Great For

• Adding texture and contrast to succulent arrangements

• Rock gardens, xeriscapes, and modern container designs

• Sun-filled patios and windowsills

• Collectors seeking rare foliage with architectural appeal
