It is the largest known Avonia belonging to the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ePortulacaceae family. The plant consists of a mass of miniature stems that either branch as creepers or grow erect. These stems do not grow more than 5 to 10 cm in height. In the case of the plant growing from a seed, the branches grow from a tuber-like root. Between summer to fall, each stem of this plant produces a solitary flower that is tiny and whitish-green in color. The plant is frost-hardy, slow-growing, and needs light shade to full sun for optimal growth. It is commonly known by the botanical name only.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eGrowth Rate\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThis succulent has a slow growth rate. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eFlowering\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe plant flowers between summer and fall.
