White Colour\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAeonium 'Halloween' var. White Colour is a rare variegated cultivar renowned for its dramatic seasonal color shifts and architectural form. This arboreal succulent develops sculptural rosettes (5-7 inch diameter) with spatulate leaves exhibiting creamy ivory centers and vibrant green margins. Under cool temperatures and bright light, the foliage intensifies to rose-pink edges with burgundy undertones, creating a striking tricolor effect. Mature specimens produce pyramidal yellow flower clusters in late winter. Its upright growth habit and chromatic dynamism make it a prized specimen for Mediterranean-style gardens and statement containers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to Care for Aeonium 'Halloween' var. White Colour\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLight: \u003c\/strong\u003eRequires 4-5 hours of direct morning sun with bright filtered afternoon light. Protect from intense midday sun (USDA zones 9-11) to prevent variegation bleaching. East-facing exposures optimize color contrast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWater: \u003c\/strong\u003eWater when top 1.5 inches of soil are dry (typically 10-12 days in growth season). Suspend watering during summer dormancy. Reduce to monthly in winter active phase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature: \u003c\/strong\u003ePrefers 50-75°F (10-24°C). Tolerates brief frost to 30°F (-1°C) when dry. Prolonged heat above 85°F (29°C) triggers dormancy - cease watering entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSoil \u0026amp; Potting: \u003c\/strong\u003ePlant in 70% mineral grit (scoria\/pumice) mixed with 30% coconut coir. Select deep pots (8+ inches) to accommodate taproots. Dark containers enhance heat retention during growth season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFertilizer: \u003c\/strong\u003eApply phosphorus-rich fertilizer (3-8-5 NPK) at 20% strength monthly during active growth (October-April). Avoid nitrogen-heavy formulas to preserve variegation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePests \u0026amp; Disease: \u003c\/strong\u003eSusceptible to mealybugs in leaf axils. Treat with systemic imidacloprid.

White Colour propagates most effectively via stem cuttings with 60% success. Take 3-inch apical cuttings during active growth (spring), cure for 72 hours, plant in dry scoria mix. Delay watering for 10 days. Maintain 60-65°F (15-18°C) under 40% shade cloth. Roots establish in 5-6 weeks, but variegation stability requires 12-18 months maturation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMore Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary color: \u003c\/strong\u003eCreamy ivory centers with green margins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSecondary color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rose-pink edges with burgundy undertones (cool stress)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBloom color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Golden-yellow\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct format:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 inch potted plant\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCold hardiness: \u003c\/strong\u003eUSDA Zones 9b-11 (30°F\/-1°C min when dry)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuitability: \u003c\/strong\u003eContainer focal points, coastal gardens, solariums\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePropagation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stem cuttings (spring optimal)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial characteristics: \u003c\/strong\u003eSeasonal dormancy adaptation, variegation instability, architectural form\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Next Gardener","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43269540184162,"sku":"qvc1788063456161","price":9.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0629\/0151\/8434\/files\/aeonium-halloween-var-white-colour-4-inch_1.jpg?v=1788063460","url":"https:\/\/www.harborandgrain.shop\/products\/aeonium-halloween-var-white-colour-4-inch","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
