Snuggle Bear (L. Ray)

Snuggle Bear (L. Ray)

Miniature. Tiny bright pink bells.

Variegated foliage, though the variegation is subtle. Very small rosette with tiny heart-shaped leaves edged with variegation. The rosette is neat, with leaves close together. The diameter of the rosette is between 6 to 8 cm.

The flowers are small, bell-shaped. Sometimes they can be semi-double, in which case the flower opens up its petals. Almost always in bloom. The flower stalks are pinkish-green, long, sticking out in different directions.

The leaves are very small, the petioles are very thin, so in the initial stages, it is difficult to propagate and grow. When planting a leaf, it is recommended to trim the petiole shorter so that its length is no more than 1/3 of the leaf blade length. This way, the leaves root better and produce offspring faster. It tends to produce suckers, especially before blooming.

However, mature rosettes behave quite normally, flowering well and abundantly, with flowers lasting a long time. Mature specimens grow well on a wick, without increasing in size.
