Ghost Plant is a small evergreen succulent with trailing stems and colorful rosette forming fleshy leaves that come in a range of pastel colors. The foliage gains tints of pink and yellow with a thick powder coating in full sun, or shades of blue, purple, and silver if grown in part shade. Small yellow flowers bloom in spring. Grows best in full sun and dry to medium well-drained soils. Drought and heat tolerant once established.
