When succulents are well cared for, they are as beautiful as flowers, but flowers fade, while succulents can keep their beauty for a long time; however, flowers do give off fragrance. So, are there any succulents that have both lasting beauty and the fragrance of flowers? The answer is: yes. Below, Xiaojingzhi Life introduces several fragrant succulents for you, succulents you can enjoy with your nose.

1. Echeveria 'Rasberry ice'

Echeveria 'Rasberry ice' (Echeveria Rasberry ice), Crassulaceae, Echeveria genus, Moon Shadow series succulent. It has a sweet fragrance like vanilla ice cream. And Ice Girl is not only fragrant, but also beautiful, pretty, and charming. There is simply no fitting word to describe it, right? The key point is, it also easily forms clusters! I wonder if Ice Girl has taken all the good things in the succulent world, and whether the other brothers and sisters would be jealous if they knew?

2. Sedum clavatum

Sedum clavatum (Sedum clavatum), Crassulaceae, Sedum genus. "Raul" is a transliteration of the Korean name, and some people also call it Xiangshilian; Xiaojingzhi Life prefers its other Chinese name: Ningzhilian. When you open the package of a mail-order Sedum clavatum, you can already smell its light, fresh fruity scent. It easily forms old stems, and when it colors up, it takes on a jelly-like, creamy feel. The line "a few flower streets newly compete for brocade, somewhere a fragrant path lightly congeals cream" probably describes Ningzhilian.

3. Sedum 'Alice Evans'

Sedum 'Alice Evans' (Sedum "Alice Evans"), Crassulaceae, Sedum genus. It is said to be the offspring of Sedum clavatum and Sedum 'Songzhilv', inheriting the fragrance of Sedum clavatum. After coloring up, it shows a yellow-green jelly-like look, silly and cute.

4. Graptopetalum pachyphyllum

Graptopetalum pachyphyllum (Graptopetalum pachyphyllum Rose), Crassulaceae, Graptopetalum genus. Its fragrance is a sweet, cloying scent similar to Echeveria 'Rasberry ice'. Its blue leaves with white powder have red tips, and when it colors up it turns slightly orange or even slightly purple. How much it looks like a little girl whose cheeks turned red from playing outside in the winter cold!

5. Cotyledon pendens

Cotyledon pendens (Cotyledon pendens), Crassulaceae, Cotyledon genus. Its fragrance is a sweet scent with a hint of lemon oil, and the fragrance becomes more obvious especially when watering. The leaves are light green or tender yellow, and the leaf tips easily turn red after coloring up. Funiang, Funiang, for some reason, Xiaojingzhi Life subconsciously always reads Funiang as chuniang. Being able to cook is a blessing, beautiful cook, hehe.

6. Echeveria prolifica

Echeveria prolifica (Echeveria prolifica Moran J.Meyran), Crassulaceae, Echeveria genus. "Zichi" should be a Japanese term, apparently meaning "with children," so the mother plant of Echeveria prolifica grows many stolons like little claws, which slowly become new little Echeveria prolifica. After Echeveria prolifica colors up, the leaf tips turn pink or the leaves take on a reddish tint. It has a sweet fragrance, especially obvious in sunlight. In addition, although "Zichi Bailian" and "Zichi Lianhua" have similar names, they are not the same succulent.

7. Sedum spathulifolium and Sedum spathulifolium 'Carnea'

Sedum spathulifolium (Sedum spathulifolium) and Sedum spathulifolium 'Carnea' (Sedum spathulifolium Carnea) both belong to Crassulaceae, Sedum genus. The difference between the two is that Sedum spathulifolium has white-pink leaves with a thick powdery coating, while Sedum spathulifolium 'Carnea' has leaves that are basically red with almost no powder. Mm, the two sisters also learned from Echeveria prolifica to stretch out little hands. Mm, the Frost sisters are sweetly fragrant, and the older sister Sedum spathulifolium is more fragrant than the younger sister Sedum spathulifolium 'Carnea'.

8. Sedum dasyphyllum

Sedum dasyphyllum (Sedum dasyphyllum var. dasyphyllum), Crassulaceae, Sedum genus. Mm, Xiaojingzhi Life usually really did not notice that this thing also has a mint fragrance. No need to introduce this beauty much, right?

9. Aeonium 'LilyPad'

Aeonium 'LilyPad' (Aeonium LilyPad), Crassulaceae, Aeonium genus. It has taken up one and a half flower names, so it would be a shame if it were not fragrant. The leaves of a colored-up old stem form a pink-orange-green lotus shape, very beautiful.

The above are 9 relatively well-known fragrant succulents. In fact, succulents such as Bear's Paw, Purple Velvet, Little Man Festival, and String of Pearls also have their own unique scents. The editor will not introduce them one by one. Friends can add more in the comments.
