Evergreen succulent with a mat forming growth habit, that bears rosettes of
pointed, thick leaves, many times with bristly margins, or covered with a web
of white hair. Silverine has red stolons bearing pink shaded, silverish-blue
rosettes. Star-shaped, reddish-purple flowers are held in flat cymes on the
terminal ends of hairy, upright stems. The rosettes die after flowering but
are replaced by new rosettes on lateral runners. An old time favorite used in
concrete planters on either side of the front entry. Great in window boxes or
niches.
