Crimson Leaf Succulent

Succulent type: Leaf succulent (Stores water in its leaves)

This colossal leaf succulent grows up to 129 feet (39.3 meters) tall. The slender, pointed stem is red, and is covered in dozens of flexible yellow spines. The smooth-edged, 6 pointed leaves are found in gold, sky blue and bronze varieties. Small amounts of them grow from the base in a loosely patterned way. The leaves are light, but take some effort to detach.

It is slow growing, taking 26 years to reach maturity. Once mature, a single flower with alternating petals of blue and bronze, with a white central disk grows at the top, reappearing every year. The flower head is an uncoordinated mess of up to 60 petals. It has a powerful scent that smells like paint.

The leaf succulent's skin is rock-hard, the crimson flesh is rough, and the lime sap is thin and can kill if consumed.
