Description:
Senecio mandraliscae, or Blue Chalksticks, is a stunning succulent with blue-gray cylindrical foliage. This South African native is drought-tolerant and forms dense clusters of fleshy, cylindrical leaves. It is ideal for rock gardens, succulent displays, or as a ground cover. Blue Chalksticks thrives in full sun and well-draining soil. It produces small yellow flowers in summer, but its main attraction is its striking blue foliage. With low maintenance needs, it's a popular choice for water-wise gardens and adds beauty to any landscape. Grows approx 30cm H x 1m W.
