Cinnamon Leaf Succulent

This modest-sized leaf succulent grows up to 42 feet (12.8 meters) tall. The pleated stem is yellow, and is covered in handfuls of flexible brown spines. The stumpy leaves are beige and blood red.

The central disk is cream, grow at the top, reappearing once every 5 years. The flower head is largely flat with dozens of tightly layered narrow petals. It has a mildly strong scent that smells like cinnamon.

The leaf succulent's skin is tough, the bronze flesh is leathery, and the pink sap is thin.
