TANZANIAN PASSION

Perfect for injecting passion into a garden or pot is Senecio amaniensis, a native of Tanzania which is sometimes known as ‘Purple Passion’ for its fluorescent pink-edged, spoonshaped leaves. With fleshy pale green foliage, the flamboyant succulent performs well as a low-grower when water is short, yet becomes taller, growing up to nearly 1 metre high, when regularly irrigated. Grow it in full sun or part shade. Frost-resistant, it boasts orange flower spikes during summer.
