Alphabetical Plant Listing

Aeonium 'Jack Catlin'


Aeonium 'Jack Catlin' is an evergreen succulent perennial forming low clumps of showy rosettes, 6-8 in. wide (15-20 cm), of glossy, fleshy, brilliant burgundy-red leaves. They contrast beautifully with the bright apple green heart. This Aeonium offsets readily, spreading over time to form a lovely ground cover. Attractive when not blooming, it is particularly striking when it produces bright golden racemes of small, star-shaped flowers in late spring or summer.

  • Grows up to 18 in. tall (45 cm) and 24 in. wide (60 cm).
  • Easily grown in sandy, dry to medium moisture, well-drained soils in full sun. Tolerates light shade and poor soils. While drought tolerant, Aeoniums require more regular watering than other succulents since they have a relatively small, shallow root system.
  • Aeoniums may go dormant in summer and do not require any water, except in excessively dry conditions. When in growth water moderately and feed every two or three weeks with a balanced liquid feed. During the winter months, restrict water to just enough to keep the foliage from shriveling.
  • Aeoniums are monocarpic: the rosette flowers once and dies thereafter. However, it may take several years before this happens and not all rosettes bloom at the same time.
  • Excellent for rock gardens, succulent gardens or Mediterranean gardens. Perfect for containers where spectacular floral arrangements can be created.
  • Deer resistant and salt tolerant.
  • Virtually pest and disease free
  • Propagate by cuttings of rosettes kept at 64ºF (18ºC) and barely moist until rooted.
