Succulent, perennial plant with continuous growth, in a rosette form. One of the most popular plants in recent years, thanks to the properties of its fleshy grey-to-green leaves and its famous viscous sap, which has several medicinal benefits (healing, cell-regenerating, antifungal, and highly moisturising). Plus, it doesn\u2019t need much care, which makes it one of the most popular plants.<\/p>\n
