There are already over a thousand succulent varieties, and on top of that, new varieties keep appearing every so often. Besides the common cheap ones we see for a few yuan each, some of the expensive ones you have never even laid eyes on, and the prices alone are unbelievable...

Pseudolithos migiurtinus

Hottest price: 200,000

Pseudolithos migiurtinus also blooms, and the flowers stink. It can produce seeds, and these days a single seed sells for as much as 10 yuan

White-skinned Haworthia

Hottest price: 200,000

A newly bred variety, currently quite scarce on the market. A single leaf is now being hyped up to several hundred yuan, and mature plants are even rarer

Dioscorea elephantipes

Hottest price: 100,000

It is divided into the South African Dioscorea elephantipes and the Mexican Dioscorea elephantipes; the former goes dormant in winter, the latter in summer. But we do not need to worry about that, since we would not (could not af) buy (ford) one anyway

Orca

Hottest price: 60,000

Orca tends to crest easily, and once crested it looks even more imposing, so naturally the price goes up

Silver Silkworm

Hottest price: 30,000

Silver Silkworm can only be propagated by seed, so its price has stayed high all along. The Silver Silkworm seeds on the market today are a mixed bag, and genuine ones are worth their weight in gold

Crystal Diamond Velvet Lotus

Hottest price: 20,000

So tiny, not even as big as a napa cabbage heart, yet it can sell for 20,000 yuan. Say no more, Huahua is off to grow succulents

Fairy Cup - White Chrysanthemum

Hottest price: 20,000

White Chrysanthemum is a South Korean variety. It looks no different from the common ones, but the price is worlds apart

Buddha's Seat Hoop

Hottest price: 18,000

Buddha's Seat Hoop is a type of Jade Emerald, but Jade Emerald is cheaper, and many are passed off as it in China. The biggest difference between the two is the flower stalk: Buddha's Seat Hoop has only a single short flower stalk

Large-Tuber Red-Purple Jade

Hot price: 15,000

Red-Purple Jade looks incredibly artistic. Grow it into a good shape, meet a discerning buyer, and you will have no trouble getting a price

Raised from a young age, every one of these below is pure renminbi

Yuwengdian

Hottest price: 10,000

The white fuzz of Yuwengdian is the whole point. Without the right environment and growing technique, you simply cannot grow such dense fuzzy hairs

Now that you have seen these expensive succulents
