The Giant Chalk Dudleya is a stunning, sculptural California native succulent that resembles a large, powdery-white rose. It forms a dramatic, solitary rosette of broad, spoon-shaped leaves covered in a thick, protective coating of farina (epicuticular wax), giving it a ghostly white or pale blue appearance. In spring, it sends up a tall, arching flower stalk with pale yellow to white flowers, attracting hummingbirds. A slow-growing treasure for rock gardens and containers, demanding perfect drainage and minimal summer water.

• Produces a spectacular, tall flowering stalk with pale blooms in spring.
