Anacampseros telephiastrum f. variegatum 'Sunrise' Highlights: 

• Anacampseros telephiastrum f. variegatum 'Sunrise' forms a low-growing variegated rosette of pink, green, and yellow leaves. 'Sunrise' does well both indoors and outdoors. Anacampseros often grows a long filament out of its center to help it trap water during times of drought.
• Easily propagated from offsets.
• Produces large pink flowers that typically bloom in the afternoon and close by night time. 
• Hardy to Zone 10 (30°-35° F). Anacampseros will not survive a hard frost. However, succulents can easily be grown indoors under grow lights or in a sunny window if there is a risk of temperatures dropping below 35° F. If there is only a risk of freezing temperatures for a few days, most succulents do just fine outside if they are covered by frost cloth or a sheet until temperatures increase (I'm talking to you, Zone 9 friends). Anacampseros require slightly more water than the typical succulent. Anacampseros will develop shriveled leaves when in need of a deep watering. 

Anacampseros Care: As with all succulents, it is best to follow a "soak and dry" schedule where you water your plants deeply (until water runs out the bottom drain holes), and then allow your soil to dry completely before watering again. Succulents should always be planted in well-draining cactus and succulent soil and in a pot or container that has drain holes. Anacampseros require slightly more water than the typical succulent. Anacampseros will develop shriveled leaves when in need of a deep watering.
