Description

Blue Chalksticks: Low, spreading succulent with slender blue-green cylindrical leaves, typically around 10–12 inches tall and up to 2–3 feet wide. Small pale flowers may appear.

Growing in Alabama and the Southeast

Give full sun to light shade and very sharp drainage. In Alabama, use a raised, gravelly planting area or container rather than wet clay soil. Water sparingly once established and protect from prolonged winter wetness. Treat as a tender perennial or container succulent in much of Alabama; move pots under protection before frost.
