Introducing the mountain rose succulent, known as Aeonium dodrantale, which is a stunning and unique plant that captivates with its rosette form and striking appearance. It gets its name because of its stunning resemblance to a rose and its natural habitat in mountainous regions.  

This Aeonium succulent has several other common names, such as Greenovia dodrantalis, Mountain Aeonium, or Giant Velvet Rose, due to its large, velvety leaves arranged in a beautiful rosette shape.  


Native to the Canary Islands, specifically Tenerife, this mountain rose succulent thrives in the mild, Mediterranean-like climate of its natural habitat.

Because of its clustering habit during summer dormancy, this lime-green plant, which resembles a green rose, matures into a neat clump.

It can grow up to 4 inches wide as an individual plant and produce offsets on up to 5 inches of long stalks.

In a cluster form, it will grow even wider. The leaves are obovate-spatulate, apically rounded, and glaucous, becoming glabrous with age.

The flowers of the mountain rose succulent produce tall, upright flower spikes topped with clusters of small, star-shaped yellow flowers, adding a charming contrast to its dark foliage. It blooms during the spring.  

When and How to Water Your Mountain Rose Succulent

Like many succulents, the Stapelia gigantea plant stores water in its thick, fleshy stems, allowing it to endure long dry periods without stress. Because of this, it’s best to water deeply but sparingly, ensuring the soil dries out completely between waterings. The Stapelia gigantea prefers watering once every 2-3 weeks in the growing season, and once a month in the dormant season.

From spring through early fall, during its active growing season, water your Stapelia gigantea every 2–3 weeks or when the top few inches of soil feel completely dry. When watering, soak the soil thoroughly until water drains from the bottom of the pot, then let it dry out fully before watering again. Avoid letting it sit in water, as the roots are sensitive to excess moisture.

In late fall and winter, during its dormant season, Stapelia gigantea slows its growth and needs much less moisture. Reduce watering to once a month or even less, depending on your indoor humidity and temperature. In cooler environments, it’s often best to keep the soil almost dry, providing just enough water to prevent the stems from shriveling. 

Light Requirements - Where to Place Your Mountain Rose Succulent 

When growing indoors, the mountain rose succulent thrives in bright, indirect light for at least 4-6 hours a day. Place your Aeonium dodrantale near a window where it can receive filtered sunlight without being exposed to direct sunlight. 

If you notice the plant stretching or leaning towards the light source, it may indicate that it needs more sunlight. Rotating the plant periodically can help ensure even light exposure on all sides, promoting balanced growth. 

When grown outdoors, Aeonium dodrantale prefers a location with partial shade, especially in regions with hot, intense sunlight. If you live in a climate with mild temperatures and moderate sunlight, you can place your mountain rose succulent in a spot where it receives a few hours of direct sunlight each day, supplemented by bright indirect light. 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

The mountain rose favors very airy, sandy soil that drains well, and should be fertilized once a year in spring. Planting them in ordinary soil will result in compacted roots, stunted growth, and, most likely, root rot. Instead, make or buy a well-draining potting mix, or ideally, use our specialized succulent potting mix, opens in a new tab that contains 5 natural substrates and mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your Aeonium succulent to thrive. 

Like other succulents, opens in a new tab, Aeonium dodrantale does not require frequent feeding. During the growing season in spring, you can fertilize your mountain rose succulent with a balanced (5-10-5), diluted NPK fertilizer designed for succulents. It's best to fertilize sparingly, about once a year, to avoid overfeeding, which can lead to nutrient imbalances or burn the plant's roots.  

In contrast, during the dormant period in fall and winter, you can skip fertilization altogether, as the plant's growth slows down, and it requires fewer nutrients during this time. 

Hardiness Zones & More 


In the United States, this is mostly an indoor plant, but if you live in southern Florida or Hawaii, then you can cultivate it outdoors in USDA zones 10-11.

These rose succulents can tolerate temperatures as low as 30°F but prefer warmer conditions.

In regions with hot summers, providing some afternoon shade can help protect the plant from scorching sun exposure.

It is essential to ensure proper drainage to prevent waterlogging, especially during rainy periods. 

How to Grow Best Mountain Rose Succulent Indoors

When growing indoors, your Mountain rose succulent thrives in typical room temperatures ranging from 65°F to 75°F. It's important to avoid exposing it to extreme temperature fluctuations and drafts, as these can stress the plant. Additionally, Aeonium dodrantale prefers moderate humidity levels, so maintaining a humidity range of 40% to 60% can help prevent issues like leaf dehydration. 

Wildlife - Aeonium dodrantale Attracts the Following Friendly Pollinators

The Aeonium dodrantale plant is known to attract a variety of friendly pollinators, including bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. These pollinators play a crucial role in the ecosystem by helping to fertilize plants and promote biodiversity.

Butterflies
Bees
Hummingbirds
Lady Bugs
Multi Pollinators
Other Birds

According to ASPCA, the Aeonium dodrantale is not considered toxic to humans or animals. It is easy to handle and requires minimal care, making it a popular choice for indoor and outdoor gardens alike.

How to Propagate Your Aeonium dodrantale

The Aeonium dodrantale can be propagated through stem cuttings or offsets. Stem cuttings can be taken from healthy, mature stems and allowed to callus before planting in well-draining soil. Offsets, also known as pups, can be carefully separated from the mother plant and replanted to establish new plants. 

Key Takeaways

  1. The tightly packed, petal-shaped leaves of Mountain Rose Succulent form a perfect green rosette that looks strikingly like a blooming rose — earning it the nickname “living rose.”
  2. During its dormant summer phase, the rosette closes tightly like a rosebud to conserve moisture, then reopens beautifully in cooler months.
  3. Once mature, it produces tall flower stalks with clusters of small yellow blooms — a stunning display that marks the end of the rosette’s life cycle but often leaves behind new offsets to continue growing.
  4. Though drought-tolerant, it prefers gentle, infrequent watering and can be sensitive to overwatering — a delicate balance that keeps it healthy and compact.

The Bottom Line 

Overall, the Mountain Rose succulent (Aeonium dodrantale), is a striking plant native to the Canary Islands, boasting velvety rosettes of broad leaves and clusters of yellow flowers atop tall spikes. To care for this beauty, provide well-draining soil, ample sunlight, and moderate watering. With its unique appearance and relatively easy maintenance, Aeonium dodrantale is sure to add elegance and charm to any garden or indoor space.

Buy this one, forget the rest
This is one of the most powerful handheld electric blowers available. If you're serious about getting the job done quickly, this is the baseline. The next power tier is a gas backpack blower at five times the cost, then an even more powerful backpack, and then four-digit specialty tools from companies like Billy Goat. I bought the Worx because I didn't want to spend three hours raking a half-acre of grass. My trial run was an hour of continuous use with matted wet leaves and driveway sand. It fast became apparent that to be efficient, a blower has to move leaves without being on top of them. Blowing from six inches just makes everything scatter as piles build up. You end up crisscrossing the section you just cleared to deal with the strays. The further your breeze carries, the more direct the flight path of the leaves. This range, and the ability to scour stubborn leaves from the ground, comes from air speed (MPH). At the same time, though, you need a big enough wall of air to move more than one leaf at once. That comes from the size of your pipe opening. The two multiplied together determine your total air volume over a duration, or CFM (cubic feet per minute). In physics-land (with spherical cows and turbulence-free pipes, spared from the icy hand of marketing), CFM is the best measure of a blower's work capacity. MPH, you can change by varying the size of the pipe; a smaller pipe makes a smaller column of air moving at a faster speed (and more impressive advertising), which is why a lot of consumer-class blowers have tiny nozzles. (I'm looking at you, Sun Joe SBJ601E.) But there's a cost to adding MPH: it kills efficiency. The energy to move a volume of air goes up with the square of speed, so if you design your blower for 160 MPH, you'll get half the CFM of a 110 MPH blower from the same power. Something to mull if the blower is powered by a battery. Still, if you know either speed or CFM, and the size of the pipe, you can calculate the other (assuming the manufacturer isn't misleading you by quoting CFM at the fan and MPH at the end of the pipe). To get CFM from MPH and the radius of a round pipe, the calculation is (radius^2)*(mph)*(1.92). That's (1.69^2)(110)(1.92) for this blower's 110 MPH and 3 3/8" pipe, with the result arriving right at the rated number of 600 CFM. Anyway, the Worx has enough volume and speed to blow mounds of wet leaves from six feet and dry ones from ten or more. It's impressively powerful. I was switching arms every few minutes as they wore out from the backward force. Only some really baked-on mud would have benefited from a pipe-reducer attachment. Thanks to ape-like proportions or the secure fit of my spandex leaf-blowing onesie, clothing suction from the rear-directed air intake hasn't been a bother. ALTERNATIVES: I almost bought Toro's highly-rated "Ultra" combination blower to minimize bagging, but the vacuum functionality didn't seem that useful in videos. Maybe it'd be adequate to clean an enclosed deck area or a small yard with a scattering of dry leaves. For a larger yard, it looks like a time sink relative to a standalone mulcher. Likewise the blowing capacity, which, at 410 CFM, trails the Worx by quite a lot. Cordless tools were also tempting. There's a 20V DeWalt people seem to like that's rated at (a perhaps optimistic) 400 CFM. Because it's a similar fan design to the Worx, we can compare power directly. DeWalt's standard battery is 20V (or so we'll stipulate; it's closer to 18V under load) and 5 amp-hours, so we're looking at 100 watt-hours total output. 15 minutes of runtime translates to a sustained draw, best case, of 400W. Assuming 90% efficiency in the brushless motor, that's 360W actually moving air. (When new. Expect a performance drop over time and battery replacements by year three.) Compare this Worx: 12 amps at 120V equates to 1440 watts sustained, in this case feeding a 2-pole AC/DC motor that's perhaps 55% efficient. 12A is close to the maximum a device can reasonably expect from a typical 15A household socket. Even with nearly half of our power lost to heat and noise, the remaining 790W is over double what the DeWalt can manage. It's no coincidence that 600 CFM cordless blowers (Greenworks and Kobalt come to mind) have 80V/2.5Ah batteries with twice the DeWalt's capacity. Their runtime at full tilt? The same fifteen minutes, with three extra pounds to lug around from a chunk of lithium that costs more than the blower it attaches to. And what of gas blowers? The handheld versions have around 1 HP with CFM from 450 to 500. They're usually tuned for higher MPH than the Worx, so they're likely to be a little better with wet leaves and a little worse with dry ones. Backpack blowers up the displacement and make between 1.5 and 5 horsepower. The models that you might find on the back of a professional landscaper can manage nearly 1000 CFM with speeds around 200 MPH. That's a considerable difference, but you pay for it at the checkout and in weight: figure 10 pounds or so for a handheld (relative to 7ish for this unit, plus some cord) and 20 or more for a backpack. As of mid-2020, two other corded blowers are worth a hard look: Toro's F700 and Worx's WG521. The Toro arrived first in 2019 with a hefty 720 CFM rating, a bigger two-arm handle, and a better cord retention mechanism. The WG521 is the response: 800 CFM and 135 MPH (claimed) from a ~4" nozzle, albeit still intended for one arm. All three blowers are beastly and often close in price; pick whichever best channels your inner Tim Allen. ACCESSORIES: A motor this powerful benefits from a thick (low gauge) cord for longer runs. You lose a bit of performance with thinner cord. The generic orange 50-foot extension everyone has is 16-gauge. Feeding a 12A load for 50 feet, it'll have a voltage drop of about 5V. Heavier 14-gauge loses 2.5V on the same run, and industrial 12-gauge, only 1.5V. The scale is linear, so if you double up that 16-gauge cord for a 100-foot run, you'll lop off 10V. How's that play out here? From a short and fat cable (that the cheesy plastic strain-relief piece won't actually accommodate; just tie an overhand knot over the two plugs instead), we'd expect a 1440W draw (12A * 120V, or a bit less because the house wiring itself has some drop). Losing 5V drops the total to 1380W. That's about what I found when I tested the Worx with a watt meter. 12ag / 3 ft = 1423W 14ag / 100 ft = 1352W 16ag / 50 ft = 1351W 16ag / 50 ft + 14ag / 100 ft = 1280W With the progressive thumb dial at the lowest setting, minimum draw was 260W. For shorter runs, disconnect extensions you don't actively need. Every cable sheds a percentage of the energy it carries to heat. As above, skinny cables lose more. Coiled on the ground and coupled with a high-load device like the Worx, they can build up enough heat to start melting insulation, which tends to cause sheepish expressions and insurance claims. This blower is also loud enough to merit hearing protection. On an A-weighted scale (approximating human hearing), measured outdoors from three feet, it makes 82 dB on low and 91 dB on high. Indoors or near a wall, volume jumps by 10 dB and subjectively doubles. While the sound character emulates a vacuum, my Shark only measures 72 dB indoors; you'd have to run over a rat's nest of lamp cords to make one this loud. Amazon has a number of comfortable muffs for less than a Jackson that'll keep your ears intact. You can find electric blowers with more toys, but few that'll get the job done as fast as this one. It's a bargain at the asking price. I'll update if I catch any reliability problems.

Light, and easy to use for blowing leaves
I bought this in the fall of 2025, and found it very easy to use. I also have a Toro blower/vac, that I use to grind up leaves in the fall. While this appliance is only good for blowing leaves, it does a good job of it. It's quieter than the Toro, and considerably lighter in weight. I find it much less fatiguing on the hand than the Toro. It has multiple speeds, so is versatile. You don't ALWAYS want maximum wind from these things, depending on the job and the space. The weight, comfortable handle, balance, and lower noise are the top advantages to this machine. Because this is a corded model, there's no concern over battery life. You can blow the afternoon away without a care. Only time will tell when it comes to durability. 🤞🏻

The Black and Decker BESTA510 is a KEEPER plus it's made in the USA 🇺🇲
Style: String Trimmer
Well folks🙂 I have to tell you this has been a nice weed eater that cuts really good and it's LIGHTWEIGHT and it's powerful👍 and at a PRICE that can't be beat...it's way more powerful than some battery and electric weed eaters that I have.. like a Ryobi... And supposedly a commercial grade Ryobi $200 😤.. Anyway 🙂 This electric weed eater is very good and I'll take that PEPSI challenge any day 😀 when comparing it to some other weed eaters PLUS it doesn't USE LINE like other electric weed eaters that I've used.. at least that's been my experience.. This is a KEEPER weed eater from Black & Decker👍....it handles tall grass and even some hedge... though it probably shouldn't be used for hedge but it's TOUGH 😀 and better than any battery weed eater I used especially with the power and cutting... The power alone and convenience of NOT rushing through the job with the battery pack and charging ect imo is worth the cord drag 🙂... and much better than a battery weed eater or other electric weed eaters.. This just cuts better 👍... With MORE power consistently and constantly through the whole job... So in conclusion 🙂 the Black & Decker BESTA510 weed eater in my opinion is a KEEPER and this model has been around for a while which speaks for itself not to mention Black & Decker has been around for years.... This weed eater OVERALL (pound for pound ) is a solid performer with many mostly liking this weed eater and Black & Decker products overall.. Thanks for reading🙂.. I hope my review helps... and Did I mention It's made in the USA...🇺🇲..🙂...

No problems all the way to the end of the spool
Style: String Trimmer
I had an old Greenworks string trimmer that I found in the basement after I moved into my new home. Maybe it was just old, but the auto-feed didn't work well, the line was always running out, and I spent more time rewinding the spool than cutting down weeds. I had almost lost my faith in string trimmers entirely. You can spend $300 on one, but how much better are they? I didn't know. This Black & Decker was only $50, and although it's corded, my roommate convinced me it was worth not having to do the dance of recharging batteries, plus having full 110v power. Some (easy) assembly required out of the box, and this thing was basically plug & play. I did read through the owner's manual first, which gave amateur me some confidence through a few helpful tips. I use it not only for cutting down weeds, but also for cleaning out weeds from the cracks in my sidewalk, and the edger wheel is very helpful for that. More importantly, the line had no problems all the way to the end of the spool. Faith restored, there are good string trimmers in the world. That being said, be aware that the line it comes with isn't very long. My lawn is medium-size, and it ran out about halfway through. The Black & Decker replacement spools are $10 / 30 ft (much longer), but it goes through line, so this could really add up. Replacing the spool was easy, and I was able to finish my lawn with plenty line to spare. A quick search on Amazon reveals off brand spools at $15 / 12-pack. I haven't tested them yet, but the price difference is so great that I'm going to give them a chance.
