Senecio fulgens
A rare and intriguing Senecio that is caudex forming with its tuberous rootstock that creeps up out of the soil. Sitting atop its juicy base are crowns of thick, succulent, blue-grey leaves with a light purple underside. The real point of interest however is the dramatic shower of luminous red flowers that burst out of the centre of each leaf cluster mid-winter.
