Highlights
Woolly Senecio or Cocoon Plant (S. haworthii now Caputia tomentosa) (Nord & Pelser): A unique plant with a white, felted covering. This small shrublet has curved, chunky leaves covered with a thick white wool. It rarely blooms but it can produce yellow, pompom-shaped flowers. Over time it can grow tall, leggy stems, but it re-roots readily from stem cuttings.
Please Note: This plant will usually darken towards the base of the stem as it grows.
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.
