Graptopetalum pentandrum ‘Superbum’ Variegata — plants for sale displayed in 70 mm pots, as shown in images 2 to 5. You will receive the individual plant selected. Please select your preferred option, from drop down menu above 'Add to Cart' button

We currently have two exceptional specimens available. One is an extremely rare form displaying beautifully balanced, even variegation across each leaf. The second is a distinctive streaked and marbled form, featuring soft mottling and irregular patterns that give it its own unique character. While this form is seen slightly more often, it remains highly sought after for its natural variation and visual appeal.

Both plants exhibit reduced chlorophyll, resulting in slower growth and more delicate energy reserves compared to standard succulents. As such, they are best suited to experienced growers familiar with caring for variegated succulents—particularly in managing light, watering, and seasonal stress.

Graptopetalum pentandrum "Superbum" Variegata Description

Graptopetalum pentandrum 'Superbum' Variegata is a remarkable variegated cultivar of the Graptopetalum superbum succulent, native to Mexico and well-suited for Australian regions with minimum winter temperatures from -3.9°C to 10°C.

This slow-growing, highly prized succulent boasts striking variegated leaves in hues of pale green, cream, and pink. The small, thick leaves form rosettes, creating unique patterns that captivate succulent enthusiasts.

The rosettes can reach up to 6 cm in height and 12 cm in diameter, while the entire plant has the potential to grow up to 15 cm tall and spread up to 30 cm wide over time. During the summer, Graptopetalum pentandrum 'Superbum' Variegata produces delicate pink or white star-shaped flowers on tall stalks, further enhancing its already impressive appearance.

To care for this succulent, ensure well-draining soil and bright, indirect light, although it can tolerate some direct sunlight. Prevent overwatering by allowing the soil to dry out entirely between waterings. Propagation is generally straightforward using offsets, or leaf cuttings.

In summary, Graptopetalum pentandrum 'Superbum' Variegata is an attractive  reasonably low-maintenance succulent, making it an excellent choice for adding visual interest to any garden or indoor collection.

Superbum variegata Propagation and Growing Tips

If you wish to propagate these beautiful plants we can tell you that they do propagate from leaves but with very mixed results. Many will revert to the regular Superbum form and you will also get a percentage with extreme variegation, some completely pink which by themselves will not survive due to lack of chlorophyll for photosynthesis. If they have a regular or partially variegated head attached they will grow quite beautifully providing you take the proper care. Out of all the perfectly variegated leaves we have grown, not a single one has produced a perfectly variegated plant. It appears likely that this particular form can only be reproduced vegetatively by cloning the parent plant. It has been pleasing that all the plants we have stem cut, have grown perfectly variegated offshoots which is not normally the case with other plants, though we do have a small sample size,  so this may not always be the case.

Be careful not to take a head cutting too early before the plant is of sufficient size to sustain itself and be sure to do so when plants are actively growing and you have some time up your sleeve to get them well rooted and healthy before winter. Those of you up north will likely find it easier to propagate with the warmer weather. Also be particularly cautious with watering, especially with small plants as they can rot very easily if kept too wet. Better to lose a couple of bottom leaves from under watering than lose the whole plant due to stem rot.

Give them some extra food as well to help them along. We have been using Powerfeed available at Bunnings with great results. Though do be very selective with which plants you use it on, as it can cause extreme vegetative growth and loss of colour on plants that are best grown slow. We mainly only use it on the slower growing highly variegated plants to keep them in top condition. Of course good light, growing medium and pest control should go without saying. Hope this helps you in growing and propagating these much loved plants.

Washable quality paper plates
Style: 10 Inch, Size: 150 Count (Pack of 1)
We've used these paper plates for years for all kinds of things and find them to be really sturdy and washable. With a pleasant design that fits any decor, they are wonderful for everyday use. I really like the fact that the top surface can be lightly washed and the plates reused. They come in a package of 150 and are really good value for the money.

An elegant workhorse!
Style: 10 Inch, Size: 150 Count (Pack of 1)
I hate washing dishes so I use these Dixie plates a lot and they are STURDY. They will carry a whole meal without wilting. The rim is deep enough that, should you be so inclined, you could eat ice cream out of them without any dripping or drooping worries. So something like spaghetti or lasagna would be easily handled. I now buy them 150 at a time because they're so handy and that way more economical. I use them instead of a cutting board sometimes. And they just feel the right weight, not too heavy, not too light. For a picnic or a walking-around party they would be the best for preventing spills. But what I enjoy is their versatility. You can even rinse them off and use them again if they've had light use. And the current pattern is cheerful too!!

Sturdy, Convenient Paper Plates That Hold Up Well
Style: 8.5 Inch, Size: 90 Count (Pack of 1)
These Dixie medium paper plates are perfect for everyday use. They’re strong enough to handle full meals without bending or leaking, even with heavier or saucy foods. The 8.5-inch size is just right not too big, not too small great for lunch, snacks, or light dinners. I also like that they hold up well in the microwave, which makes reheating easy and mess-free. Super convenient for busy days, gatherings, or when you just don’t feel like doing dishes. Reliable quality and very practical to keep on hand.
