Cotyledon Pendens

The Cotyledon pendens is a fascinating succulent plant belonging to the Crassulaceae family, native to South Africa. The thick, fleshy leaves are oval to oblong in shape, with a smooth, slightly powdery surface, bluish-green in color, often tinged with red or pink along the edges when exposed to intense light. It is distinguished by its trailing growth habit and fleshy stems, which can reach up to 30 to 50 cm in length.

The Cotyledon pendens is particularly appreciated for its bell-shaped hanging flowers, which appear at the tips of the stems. The flowers, usually coral or orange-red in color, are highly decorative and add a vibrant touch to the plant's elegance.
