With Sedeveria ‘Letizia,’ there is much to catch your eye – the first of which is likely the shiny, apple green coloration of the rosettes, which may even take on a candy-coated effect in bright sunlight by flushing red along the margins. Next may be the slightly fuzzy appearance of each leaf, caused by the presence of atypically long cilia, or fine hairs, coating every surface of the plant. Last but certainly not least, during the summer months white, star-shaped blooms will emerge above the stems, added yet another layer of delicate appeal to the truly charming ‘Letizia.’

With plenty of bright light, this variety will soon develop a branching growth habit, reaching up to 12 inches tall and wide at maturity. Beyond this need, however, ‘Letizia’ is quite low maintenance, requiring only a porous soil mixture, a pot with ample drainage, and a thorough yet infrequent watering routine to thrive.

Ample airflow around the leaves and soil surface will help protect the plant against rot and pests – though take care to keep the surrounding air above 40 degrees Fahrenheit whenever possible, as ‘Letizia’ is only hardy to Zone 10.
