Greenovia

Greenovia are found in the eastern and western parts of Tenerife in the Canary Islands.


Caring for greenovia


1) They undergo aestivation when temperatures reach above 35°C, their leaves will curl to prevent excessive water loss and sunburn, giving them a rose-like shape.


2) Give minimal water when they are dormant during summer


3) The active growing season of Greenovia occurs between 18-24°C. After dormancy, the leaves will open up, drench the soil thoroughly once it is dry.


4) Repot into a fast draining potting mix to prevent root rot


5) Do NOT water directly onto the greenovia as the water will be trapped in between the leaves, causing rot
