Aeonium atropurpureum nigrum
v Schwartzkopf
- Fast growing stem succulent.
Hardy
From Llifle
Origin and Habitat: Garden origin (Nursery produced cultivar) For a long time this choicest cultivar has been considered a sport of the Aeonium arboretum which originated in Holland (or Germany?). It now seems that it comes from the Canary Islands, thus it then cannot be a cultivar of Aeonium arboreumSN|149]]SN|149]], since Aeonium arboreumSN|149]]SN|149]] doesn't come from there. The latest theory is that it is a cultivar from Aeonium manriqueorum.
