Abstract

A new and distinct Aeonium cultivar named ‘Mardi Gras’ is disclosed, characterized a unique, stable tricolor variegation, incorporating lemon yellow, green and burgundy. Plants are compact, and very suitable for production in smaller pot sizes, such as a commercial 4 inch nursery container. ‘Mardi Gras’ shows very little negative effects under low water stress, instead foliage makes a very attractive burgundy blush. The new variety is an Aeonium , typically produced as a garden or container plant.
