Highlights
Senecio galpinii (now Kleinia) (W. J. Hooker): A very pale, silvery green rosette that can grow into a small shrub with fantastic flowers. This species is easy to grow in bright sun with gritty soil and infrequent water. The leaves feature farina, a powdery wax. It blooms with tall bloom stalks with clusters of fiery re, composite flowers.
Soft succulents will not survive a hard frost, but if there is a risk of freezing temperatures they can be brought indoors to grow on a sunny window sill or under a grow light. They need bright sunlight, great drainage, and infrequent water to prevent rot. Pick containers with drainage holes and use well-draining cactus and succulent soil with 50% to 70% mineral grit such as coarse sand, pumice, or perlite. Water deeply enough for water to run out the drainage hole, then wait for the soil to fully dry before watering again.
