Varieties of Buttons on a string
Img topic
Tom thumb

The tom thumb is a mini succulent variety that tends to branch easily, enabling it to grow into a miniature "forest" over time. Its leaves are nearly deltoid, with the upper and lower leaf blades stacked tightly together. When the plant is in its full glory, its leaf margins turn red and the plant looks like four-pointed stars from the top down, or a small pagoda when viewed from the side.
