Aeonium arboreum 'Black Rose' is a cultivated species of the genus Aeonium in the Crassulaceae family, originally from the western Canary Islands in Morocco. The purple-black leaves are arranged in rosette-like cascades, giving a sense of solemnity and mystery, with high ornamental value. It should be grown in a well-drained and permeable medium.

The plant is shrubby and growing upright with branched old stems that are cylindrical and light brown. The fleshy leaves are slightly thin, integrated into a 6" daisy-shaped rosette of leaves at the tips of the branches. The leaves are oblong-ovate or oblanceolate with apices being 2" long. The leaf margins have white eyelash-like teeth, and the leaves are blackish purple. In winter, they could get greenish purple if they don't receive sufficient sunlight.

Black Rose is tends to absorb heat more than typical succulents because the leaves themselves tend to turn black, so too much sunlight will cause the leaves to soften. It belongs to the "winter type" of succulent plants, and the bottom leaves will wither in summer when it is dormant, which is a normal metabolism. It grows in the cool season and is dormant in summer but not for long.

 

Care Tips

Light: Place the plant in semi-shade in high summer. In winter, you need plenty of light. Turn the potted plant regularly to ensure that it receives even light so that the plant's body form does not bend.

Water: Under normal growth conditions, Black Rose should be watered once every 2 weeks to ensure that the potting soil is damp, if the potting soil is too wet, it is easy to cause stem and leaf excessive growth. In summer, the Black Rose is dormant in a high temperature and humid environment. In winter, the room temperature is low, watering should not be too much to ensure that the potting soil is slightly wet.

Soil: The soil requirements must be loose and breathable. This will not only facilitate the breathing condition of the root system, but also effectively avoid the occurrence of waterlogging, which is beneficial to its growth in such an environment. 

Potting: Choose high pots, and the bottom of the pot needs to have drainage holes. It is recommended to use ceramic pots. Ceramic pots have a certain degree of permeability. Clay pots lose water too quickly, plastic pots tend to retain water for too long and permeability is poor.

Temperature: The optimum growth temperature is 68-77°F (20-25℃). In winter, if the minimum temperature is not lower than 51.8°F (11℃), the plants can be watered normally so that they can continue to grow, but there is no need to fertilize. If you can't maintain such a high temperature, you can water moderately and make the plant dormant, and it can also tolerate a low temperature of 39.2-42.8°F (4-6℃). 

Humidity: Black Rose grows well in average household humidity levels when grown indoors. Does not like too much humidity. Normal household humidity is good for this plant.

Care Instructions

Please visit our Succulent Care info page for more details.

To ensure the health of succulents, it is important to plant them in porous, well-draining soil. Succulents require little watering, but don't like to sit in wet soil. To create an adequate cactus mix, simply add pumice, perlite, or grit to cactus soil to provide the proper drainage.

Make sure to leave drought periods between waterings to prevent the plant from water-logging.

Best diaper
Size: Size 5, Unit Count: 84
The only diaper band we ever buy. We’ve never had any blowouts because of it. It’s easy to use and hold up a lot. It’s really soft and doesn’t give any rashes. The material is great. Doesn’t really stop odor not that I expected it.

Finally, a good night's sleep.
For almost a year, I've had sleep issues. No problem falling asleep, but I'd wake up 3 hours later and be up for the next 2-3 hours. I'd finally fall back asleep just a bit before the alarm and spend the rest of the day in a fog. It didn't matter whether I went to bed at 8:30 pm or 11pm - I was still up by 1:30-2 and awake for hours. It gradually got worse and I got desperate. A friend recommended Melatonin and I resisted at first, having tried it after our daughter was born (almost 15 years ago). The tablets I took then had some odd side effects and I only took them for a few weeks before throwing the bottle away. Now, I think I have have been taking far too high of a dose, because these 3mg tablets work great. Be careful when you take them! I'm awake and alert for about 20 minutes and then zone out totally - even in the middle of a conversation. After a couple of months, I've learned to just lay a tablet on my nightstand and take it when I'm ready to turn out the light. It works great: cured the problem of middle of the night sleeplessness. I still wake up sometimes at night, but have no trouble dropping back off to sleep. And when I wake up in the morning, I'm alert, energetic, and not already counting the hours until I can go back to bed to get a good night's sleep. For me, this supplement would have been a good buy at twice the price - and my family agrees. I'm rested, cheerful, and so happy I gave it a try. So far, no bad side effects. In fact, no side effects at all. I am taking it daily, but considering trying it on a more limited basis because of concerns about long-term effects. Considering, but haven't done it yet because I'm so enjoying a good night's sleep that I'm afraid to tinker with success! Although I saw results the very first night I took this, I waited to write a review just in case it was a placebo effect at work. But it's been 11 weeks and I'm confident that this product is really effective for me.

Time release.. ONLY way to go
Used this brand before... when refill needed, came back for more. Time release is the best way to go as it works all night. Not one big hit when you 1st go to sleep... A nice "hit"... to get you to sleep and then a slow release of the rest, to KEEP you asleep... Don't think you'll be disappointed. I use sustained release with any vitamin/supplement I take (assuming the company makes it) .. including this. It's the best way to allow your body to utilize the product.

A subtle sleep enhancer.
Melatonin, in my experience, is a very subtle drug. I took it for about a month and then stopped before I actually saw what it was doing. It allowed me to fall asleep quicker and when I woke up during the night, to fall back asleep quicker as well. No more tossing and turning. I prefer the timed release version since I tend to sleep about 4-5 hours straight and then wake up sporadically after that. I had been buying the timed release from GNC but this brand is much cheaper, more pills, and just as effective. I've also tried popping another one after that initial 4-5 stretch of sleep to further prolong sleepy time, but I don't know how effective that is. It doesn't put you to sleep, so there's no grogginess when you wake up. It just jump starts the natural process.

Time release is the best way
I like these time released tablets. Time release is surprisingly hard to find unlike the immediate release style tablets. Time release allows for a longer sleep pattern as it enters the blood stream slowly over time allowing it to stay in you system. Immediate release will hit you hard and fast but your body will metabolize within a couple of hrs leaving you without the melatonin in you system. I took off a star for being pricey, but these do work very well.
