In the United States: Introduced · also called orpine, live-forever, witch's moneybags

Late-summer to early-autumn blooming succulent perennial whose dense clusters of star-shaped flowers provide nectar and pollen to honeybees and other pollinators during a period when many other sources are scarce. Plants are drought-tolerant once established, low-maintenance, and regenerate readily from stem or leaf cuttings.
