Aeonium 'Kiwi' — Tricolour Variegated Rosettes

Aeonium 'Kiwi' is a compact variegated cultivar prized for its cream, yellow-green, and pink-tipped rosettes — the colour pattern intensifies with cooler weather and strong light. SouthQuest Farm grows closely related variegated Aeonium hybrids in Yunnan, China, at 2,000m elevation for wholesale export.

About This Cultivar

'Kiwi' belongs to a family of variegated Aeonium cultivars developed from tricolour sports of green-leaved parent species. Each rosette shows a gradient — pink at the tips, cream through the middle, and green at the base — giving it a distinctive "sunset" appearance that shifts seasonally.

Care Basics

  • Light: Bright, direct-to-indirect light; more sun than solid-green Aeonium to hold colour, but avoid harsh midday summer sun
  • Water: Soak-and-dry; reduce watering when semi-dormant in summer heat
  • Propagation: Stem cuttings, though variegated sections can revert to solid green over time and should be removed if they appear
  • Common issue: Colour fading in low light — move to a brighter position
Sourcing note: 'Kiwi' itself is not a fixed line in our current catalogue. We grow several tricolour and variegated hybrids with a comparable cream/pink/green pattern — share a reference photo and we'll confirm the closest match in stock.

Aeonium 'Kiwi' — what buyers ask

Aeonium 'Kiwi' is a compact variegated cultivar with cream, yellow-green, and pink-tipped rosettes — the colour pattern shifts with light intensity and season, with pink deepening under stronger light and cooler temperatures.
'Kiwi' itself is not a fixed line in our current catalogue, but we grow several tricolour and variegated Aeonium hybrids with a similar cream/pink/green colour pattern, such as 'Autumn Hues' and 'Candy Heart'. Share a reference photo and we'll confirm the closest match in stock.
Bright light is essential — variegated forms typically need more direct sun than solid-green Aeonium to hold their pink and cream tones, but harsh midday sun in hot climates can scorch the thinner variegated tissue.
