    Glaucous whitish, greenish, bluish or pinkish leaf succulent with oblong leaves and reddish flowers hidden by large bracts (color most visible looking head-on). Stems grow to about 8 inches tall and may hang downward to about 3 feet in old age. They may branch freely at the base.

    Found at one locality in Tamaulipas, Mexico. Relatively uncommon in cultivation. One of the parents of the glaucous green hybrid 'Frank Venz' (with Sedum lucidum).
