Cotyledon ‘Ace of Spades’

Cotyledon ‘Ace of Spades’ is a distinctive evergreen succulent prized for its bold architectural form and attractive fleshy foliage. Forming a compact, branching shrub, it features thick, smooth leaves that develop rich grey-green to silvery tones, often accented with burgundy or reddish margins when exposed to bright sunlight or cooler temperatures. Its sculptural appearance makes it a standout feature in succulent gardens, rockeries, decorative pots, and contemporary landscape designs.

During the warmer months, mature plants produce elegant clusters of pendulous, bell-shaped flowers in shades of orange to coral, attracting bees and other beneficial pollinators. Exceptionally drought-tolerant and easy to maintain, Cotyledon ‘Ace of Spades’ thrives in well-drained soils and sunny positions. Its compact growth and year-round ornamental appeal make it an excellent choice for water-wise gardens, containers, and succulent collections.
