The plant is named after the ancient belief that it protects the house and family from fire, disease, evil forces. For this purpose, it is often planted near houses. It is a perennial, up to 30 cm tall plant with very modest requirements. The plant is resistant to both winter and heat, and especially to dry conditions. Its rosette-shaped leaves are full of juice, just like desert cacti. A 30 cm tall stem is broken from the rosette, bearing pink flowers at the top. The cultivated plant can be used, except as an ornament, also as food and medicine. You can add leaves full of pleasant sour juice to salads. Leaves except in the kitchen are also used in folk medicine.

Really like the sound of this plant great photo
Thank you so much, I’m glad you like it
I’m sure I’ve ever had it. Beautiful and multifunctional plants.
I’m sure you’ve seen this plant before. There is a very widespread plant in our country.
An interesting plant that is edible as well. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you. I do Nettle spinach.
I have had a similar plant, but unfortunately it died.
I had it in the garden a few years ago and it has reproduced very much.
The leaves are thick (fleshy) and succulent and are always green.
If I’m not mistaken this is one kind of cactus … the picture is great, dear Vidocka
This plant is very similar to cactus.
But then this plant is not among the cacti, dear Vida
You are right, this is not a cactus
It’s important to keep an eye on the house, dear Vida
I see these all over people’s houses. But, if it came into our house sadly it would probably not make it three weeks.
But I do not believe this because this plant is very demanding and loves drought 😊
we killed a cactus. i am pretty sure it wouldn’t survive!
Plant it in the garden, I think it will survive 😊
I will talk to my wife. She is in charge of the flowers outside!
I had this plant but I knew it was called Echeveria.
I checked a little. This plant belongs to the family Crassulaceae which is then divided into genera, species, etc.
I am not sue if this is crausulacae , this is Echeveria I would think. These succulents are so easy to grow and care for. and I am sure the look lovely in front of the house.
I agree. There are many species of these plants and each is called a little different.
True and very confusing too. I know this one because I have truck loads of them LOL
beautiful flower indeed , i remember in our area a Doctor use it for some purpose
Thank you. In our country, doctors do not use it. Doctors do not approve of this type of treatment.
This looks like cactus that multiplies even when its leaf is planted. You have a great collection there.
You are absolutely right about appearance and reproduction.
Of course I would like this plant. If it sturdy and resistant to winter it is just my type as I do not have what we call the green thumb. Plants and me do not get along too well as most of them seem to die early in my care…
That plant would certainly work for you. 😊 It is very unpretentious. She loves heat and direct sun. It thrives very well on nutrient-poor soil. Thanks for your viewing and comment
Is this a type of succulent or sedum? I have one sedum and would like more. They are easy to maintain.
The leaves are thick (fleshy) and succulent and are always green.
