Introducing the Aeonium 'Sunburst', which is a striking succulent plant that has a large rosette of variegated leaves and belongs to the Aeonium genus. Native to the Canary Islands, the Aeonium sunburst has several other common names such as Copper pinwheel, Aeonium decorum tricolor, sunburst aeonium, Copper pinwheel tricolor, or Aeonium decorum sunburst. 

The sunburst aeonium is visually appealing and is an easy-to-care-for succulent plant with variegated leaves resembling pinwheels. Its vibrant color adds warmth and elegance to rock gardens or indoor spaces, making it a popular choice among plant enthusiasts. 


The foliage is a captivating display of vibrant colors, with each leaf's center being bright green and the outer edges adorned with yellow, cream, pink, or orange shades.

This coloration can become more intense when exposed to direct sunlight.

The Aeonium sunburst can grow up to 24 inches tall into mature plants.

The Aeonium sunburst blooms in spring with small, star-shaped pale yellow-white flowers.

Aeoniums are monocarpic succulents, meaning that the individual rosette dies after flowering, but this usually happens after many years of growth—not immediately. The Aeonium Sunburst produces a tall, delicate flower stalk that can attract pollinators like bees and butterflies before the blooming rosette eventually withers. However, if the plant has multiple rosettes, only the flowering one dies, while the rest continue growing, allowing the plant to thrive for many seasons. 

Additionally, it’s important to note that the Copper pinwheel sunburst aeonium is considered friendly to both humans and pets. 

When and How to Water Your Aeonium Sunburst 

In the spring, during the growing season, the Aeonium Sunburst has moderate watering needs. It's important to keep the soil evenly moist but protect it from too much moisture, as constantly wet soil can damage your plant. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings and then water thoroughly, making sure the water reaches the root zone. It's always a good idea to check the moisture level of the soil before watering to avoid overwatering, which can lead to root rot. 

Aeoniums can go dormant in summer and don't need water except in dry conditions. Water moderately and feed every two or three weeks with a balanced liquid feed. In winter, restrict water to prevent shriveling foliage. 

Light Requirements - Where to Place Your Aeonium Sunburst 

When growing indoors as a houseplant, it thrives in bright, indirect light. Place it near a window where it can receive 4-6 hours of bright, filtered sunlight each day. However, be cautious of placing it in direct, harsh sunlight as it can scorch the leaves. If you notice the leaves stretching or becoming leggy, it may be an indication that it needs more bright sunlight. In that case, consider using a grow light to supplement its light requirements. 

If you are growing your Aeonium sunburst outdoors, it enjoys full sun to partial shade.

It can tolerate direct sunlight, but it's important to acclimate it gradually to prevent sunburn.

Start by placing it in a spot with partial shade and gradually expose it to more sunlight over a few weeks. This will help the plant adjust to the intensity of the sun.

Just make sure it gets a minimum of 4-6 hours of sunlight each day for optimal growth and coloration. 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

When it comes to soil, the Aeonium sunburst pinwheel prefers well-drained soil that allows excess water to flow through easily. Instead, make or buy a well-draining potting mix, or ideally use our that contains 5 natural substrates and mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your sunburst succulent to thrive. 

During the growing season, you can use a balanced (5-10-5), water-soluble NPK fertilizer specifically formulated for succulent plants. Remember, it's always better to under-fertilize than over-fertilize, as excessive nutrients can cause damage to the plant. 

During the dormant period, which is typically in fall and winter, it's best to avoid fertilizing altogether. The plant's growth slows down during this time, and it doesn't require as much nutrients. Instead, focus on providing the plant with proper light and water to support its resting phase. 

Hardiness Zone & More 

When growing your sunburst succulent plant indoors as a houseplant, it prefers temperatures between 60-75°F. It's important to avoid extreme temperature fluctuations and drafts, as they can stress the plant. You don't need to worry too much about providing extra humidity, but if the air in your home is very dry, you can occasionally mist the leaves with water to increase humidity around the sunburst aeonium. 

In the United States, this Aeonium sunburst is mostly an indoor plant, but if you live in southern Florida or Hawaii, then you can cultivate it outdoors in USDA zones 9-11.

 It can handle temperatures as low as 30°F, but it's best to protect it from frost damage and freezing temperatures.

If you live in a colder climate, you can grow it as a potted plant and bring it indoors during the winter months. 

As for humidity, the Aeonium Sunburst can tolerate a wide range of humidity levels, from dry to moderately humid. Just make sure the soil is well-drained to prevent waterlogged conditions, which can lead to root rot. 

Wildlife - Aeonium Flowers Attract the Following Friendly Pollinators

The Aeonium Sunburst attracts a variety of pollinators such as bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds with its bright and colorful flowers. These pollinators play a crucial role in the ecosystem by helping to facilitate the reproduction of plants through pollination.

How to Propagate Your Aeonium Sunburst 

Aeonium Sunburst can be propagated through stem cuttings. To do this, simply cut a healthy stem from the plant and allow it to callous over for a few days before planting it in well-draining soil. Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged, and place the cutting in a location with bright, indirect sunlight to encourage root growth.

My Denon ROCKS
Style: AVR-X3800H
Pros: Nine Amps power a 9.1 or 7.1.2 or 5.2.4 speaker configuration because most of us want Atmos to work in our listening room. Plenty of power available in each amp and each configuration Atmos DTS IMAX plus any other codec or audio visual enhancement is available. Yes, 4K 8K HDR all supported. Three HDMI outputs Preamp output for up to 11 channels so any combination of preamp vs. power amplifier output is available. But not both preamp AND power amp for the same channel. And you can pick and choose which channel you want for pre amp vs power amp individually. So it can function as a AV Preamp Processor at very reasonable price point. DAC (changes Digital Signal to Analog) with all the power amplifiers you could want. High quality, including DSD, is an added bonus. Setup customizable to the nth degree. Some people might say too many options but that’s the way we get this AVR to meet our individual requirements I’ve been working with the setup for the last week and have dialed in for my needs. Still playing with the HEOS but I think it’s working well for now. Various HDMI inputs need different surround settings, I like the DTS best, but the unit has a way to include default settings for each HDMI. I’ll use default settings with my BluRay. And I’ll use direct or pure or whatever the source allows for music and streaming. And most users will want a streaming stick like the Amazon one otherwise you can’t get the Atmos signal to work. Older streamers won’t pass the Atmos signal though. The only problem with a device like this is you will buy more speakers and amps and possibly even more subwoofers, the unit will support 4 subwoofers. Enjoy So I will get back to you with comments about longer term issues. BTW the 3800 was a refurbished version for $999 . Definitely an excellent value. The online reviews are quite favorable. Even the audiophiles are still learning the nuances of setup. It’s worth the extra effort to get the most out of each user’s individual existing equipment. Cons: None. I’ve been an audio video nerd for decades so I can say that the setup effort is easily justified once the user, with user manual in hand, patiently works out the desired configuration. The audio expert online information is invaluable. I have 21MBS broadband service in my region. Even with this limitation I have more than enough added capacity with the Denon that I would never return it to seller unless someone catastrophic happened. Yes I like it that much.

Denon Refurb AVR-X3800h.. IMPRESSIVE!
Style: AVR-X3800H, Style: AVR-X3800H
I did a lot of homework and made contact with the seller. Great communication. Turns out all of the Denon refurbished receivers are inspected or repaired by DENON, and re-certified only after passing tests upon functional as new. It arrived in a Denon box, very well insulated. Contained all NEW accessories like new & sealed. Appears flawless. The setup was easy since I have years of previous experience with surround systems. This replaced my Onkyo of 10 years. And WOW, the difference is phenomenal! Great onscreen setup + smart phone app makes it nice for making fine tuning adjustments. This model is packed with all the latest tech. The Durac Live is easily downloadable, but I am so impressed with the Audacy setup I didn’t buy the download. Great value refurbished. It comes with a one year warranty, so I purchased the 3 year assurion warranty since I saved so much money. Very happy.

PITA to Set-Up and Hard to Connect to WiFi
Style: AVR-X3800H
This one went right back after hours spent on set-up. Room correction software was buggy as well. I couldn't get it going and called it a day and bought the Onkyo TX-RZ50 which is equally hard to get consistent sound and and hard to cnnect to WiFi and Bluetooth. Onkyo support, however, is far superior.
