Waterstem Shrubby

Shrub type: Deciduous (Stores water in the thickened base of its stem)

This small shrub grows up to 1 foot (30.5 cm) tall and lives for around 18 years. It is very resistant to disease but is susceptible to destructive insect infestation.

It has several branched, straight stems covered in smooth, black with white speckled bark, and the wood inside is burgundy.

The branches are long and thin with hundreds of twigs that and are covered with thick bunches of large, pleated, leaves with smooth edges. The leaves themselves are blue and green, tough and leathery.

In late summer it produces a handful of small, sky blue flowers with finger-like petals with a trumpet-shaped floral cup. They are hardy and have a weak scent that smells like chocolate.


It is very resistant to fire damage.
It is suitable for making paper
