Introduction to Qiuli

Chinese name: Qiuli

Latin scientific name: Graptopetalum bartramii

Family and genus: Crassulaceae, Graptopetalum

Place of origin and distribution: Arizona, United States

Morphological characteristics of Qiuli

The leaves of Qiuli are slender, smooth and rounded on the front but somewhat uneven, with the back clearly raised like a keel, and the tip slightly pointed but still fairly rounded, giving a three-dimensional feel like a boat. Qiuli grows relatively quickly, with leaves arranged in a rosette like a lotus. The lower leaves tend to wither and fall off, forming an old stem, after which side buds sprout from the lower part of the stem, forming clusters. The leaves of Qiuli are usually green and covered with a slight white powder. In spring, autumn, and winter, under sufficient light, the leaves develop orange-red tones from the leaf tips and margins, and the entire plant may even turn pink; some leaves may turn brown or pink-purple, and so on. The flowering period of Qiuli is in spring, with cymose inflorescences bearing small yellow star-shaped five-petaled flowers, very fresh and lovely. Qiuli that has not yet turned red also has a very fresh feel.
