Botanic information
Leaf: The small fleshy linear leaves are cylindrical and are bright green with an obtuse apex that is tipped in red. They are arranged in a rosette towards the end of the stems and tend to fold inwards.

Flower: The stellate flowers are arranged in a terminal flat topped corymb that is held above the foliage during summer. The tiny white flowers have 5-sepals and free petals with small spreading stamens.

Fruit: The small star-shaped follicle produces numerous seeds that are viable but the plant is commonly reproduced vegetatively.
