The short, wide, very thick leaves are toothless and spined only at the tip. The leaf margins are marked with broad white stripes. Excellent in the mild winter regions of the SW where it is best planted into rock gardens or used as an exceptional potted plant for patios and windowsills. The miniature plants can be grown for decades in relatively small pots. A rare find.
