Woolly senecio

Woolly senecio is a small perennial succulent dwarf shrub that typically grows to under 1 foot tall (30 cm). Its most striking feature is the upright cylindrical succulent leaves that are coated in fine white hairs, giving them a pure white appearance. The leaves can suggest a resemblance to a moth’s cocoon due to their shape and texture. Though capable of blooming, it produces yellow flowers that are infrequently seen in cultivation. The plant requires full sun, an open environment, and well-drained soil, thriving on minimal water and with foliage best left dry.
