Aeonium tabuliforme, the flat-topped aeonium, is an unusual species with a broad, saucer-like rosette of succulent ground hugging leaves. It's native to Tenerife, where it's found growing on rocky cliff faces. It's a short-lived perennial that will die after flowering.

For best results, grow Aeonium tabuliforme in a pot in full sun or dappled shade, in gritty, well-drained soil. Can be placed outdoors in the summer, but requires protection from frosts. The Royal Horticultural Society has given it its prestigious Award of Garden Merit (AGM).
