I bought this plant from the botanical garden at Wisely in the UK in 1999. It is a very tiny plant. A mature rosette/crown is about three inches in diameter. The specimen I have is rarely more than two inches tall in flower. Perfect for a trough. It occassionally gives a volunteer seedling or two. The parent plant has survived over crowding and being moved twice in ten years.
