Monanthes polyphylla

Monanthes polyphylla is a native of the Canary Islands. It belongs to the Crassulaceae family. This houseplant is low-growing with a slow growth rate. It reaches a height of 12 cm with dense clumps of rosettes formed by tiny soft and fleshy leaves. The green foliage grows upright and appears as a cone. Known by its common name Dwarf Crassula or One Flowered House Leek, the plant bears star-shaped flowers each during the summer season. The blooms are waxy and colored yellow, orange, or purple. This plant can survive challenging drought conditions but should be protected from direct sun. Due to its shrubby growth, it looks great in the flower beds in the garden.

Flowering

Gorgeous Plant. Did not travel well.

Its a beautiful plant and I am sure it will recover. However, even with the excellent packing from Planet Desert, it took a bit of damage on the way here.
