Diplosoma retroversum
Succulent
Description
Diplosoma retroversum is a fascinating succulent belonging to the Aizoaceae family. Native to South Africa, this small, compact plant forms low-growing mats. Its leaves are a striking feature, appearing almost like tiny, rounded pebbles. The color is a muted green, often tinged with red or purple hues in strong sunlight. During the growing season, this plant produces small, daisy-like flowers, adding a cheerful touch to the succulent landscape. Diplosoma retroversum thrives in full sun and well-draining soil, typical of many succulents. It prefers a gritty, well-aerated mix. Avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot. Propagation is best achieved through stem cuttings or division, allowing you to easily expand your collection. This succulent is an excellent choice for rock gardens or container plantings.
