duncecap

Overview

Duncecap (Orostachys boehmeri) is an attractive succulent plant native to the grassy areas of South-Central and West Asia. It is a low growing plant with upright rosettes of straw-colored to gray leaves. The leaves are coarsely lobed with sharply-pointed tips, and are topped with a "duncecap" of short, broad leaves. Its stemless clusters of pink and yellow flowers appear in summer. Despite its modest size, Duncecap has undeniable charm and can be an attractive addition to rock gardens or succulent collections when grown in containers. With minimal care, the plant will reward you with its unique color and texture for years to come.
