Hybrid Graptosedum Alpenglow sedum, Vera Higgins, Bronze in 2 inches pot
Graptosedum 'Alpenglow' (aka 'Bronze' or 'Vera Higgins'): Brilliant pink leaves, shading from light rose to deep coral. The stems can grow long and start to bend and trail, with leaves growing on the full length of the stems. It can also be kept more compact with regular pruning (How to Fix Overgrown Succulents). It is a strong grower that can eventually form thick clusters in a range of sunset tones. This cultivar is likely a hybrid of Graptopetalum paraguayense x Sedum stahlii.
