Blueleaf Succulent

This small leaf succulent grows up to 11 feet (3.4 meters) tall. The stiff, pointed stem is yellow-green, and is covered in large amounts of fine, orange, hair-like spines. The rounded-edged, long, narrow leaves are beige and dark blue. Sparse amounts of them grow from the base in a random bunch. The leaves are sturdy, and detach easily.

It is very slow growing, taking 21 years to reach maturity. Once mature, several flowers with petals that are lilac on the edges and copper at the center grow at the top, reappearing every year. The flower head is an uncoordinated mess of up to 20 curved petals. It has an intensely strong scent that smells like cheap aftershave.

The leaf succulent's skin is delicate, the dark blue flesh is smooth, and the dark blue sap is thin.
