Senecio mandraliscae talinoides

Horticultural Data | Shipping & Availability | Top

Senecio mandraliscae talinoides is well suited to lawn edges, borders and even median strips. It is drought tolerant but can take regular water. Its blue green color makes it an excellent contrast to deep burgundy aeoniums, phormiums and other dark foliaged plants. Senecio mandraliscae talinoides works well in containers alone or combined with other succulents. Senecio mandraliscae talinoides is at home in xeriscape and can tolerate salt spray. Senecio mandraliscae talinoides  works well in combination with”Blue Chalk Sticks” — the bluer thicker-leaved species plant which tends to be more sprawling. Senecio mandraliscae var. talinoides can also be used under open trees as a dry ground cover.

Senecio mandraliscae talinoides is very similar to”Blue Chalk Sticks” mandraliscae except it grows into an upright form.

Senecio mandraliscae makes a light green, fast-growing plant. It is generally more upright than the species and has pencil-thin leaves which are slightly curved upward. It’s very drought-tolerant but grows more quickly with irrigation. It is easy to keep it under control by breaking off stems and replanting them elsewhere. In spring it has small off-white narrow dandelion-style flowers followed by typical asteraceae seed puffs.
