Senecio kleiniiformis - Spear Head

Spear Head: Blue-Green Leaves with an Arrow-Like Shape

Senecio kleiniiformis, commonly called Spear Head, has fleshy pale stems and unusual blue-green leaves. Their narrow bases widen into pointed tips that give this succulent its familiar name.

• 🔎 Distinctive leaves: Pointed leaf ends resemble small spearheads.
• 💙 Cool color: Blue-green foliage contrasts with warmer-colored succulents.
• 🌿 Fleshy stems: Branching growth builds an open, sculptural shape.

Add Spear Head to a bright container for an unusual leaf silhouette.

Care Tips

Light: Provide bright light and introduce direct sun gradually. Offer afternoon shade in intense summer heat.

Water: Water thoroughly when the soil has dried, then let excess water drain. Reduce watering during cool weather or slow growth.

Soil: Use a gritty, fast-draining succulent mix in a pot with drainage holes.

Temperature: Protect from frost and freezing weather; bring containers under cover before cold conditions arrive.

Care Instructions

Please visit our Succulent Care info page for more details.

To ensure the health of succulents, it is important to plant them in porous, well-draining soil. Succulents require little watering, but don't like to sit in wet soil. To create an adequate cactus mix, simply add pumice, perlite, or grit to cactus soil to provide the proper drainage.

Allow the soil to dry to the level recommended in the Care Tips above before watering again. Always drain excess water.

Weather Conditions

• When ordering, be mindful that living succulents can freeze. If you live in an area that is below 40°F, please consider purchasing plant until the weather is more suitable.
