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.

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.

Well made and durable, not a toy the pups seek out
Size: 1 Pack, Style: Tug
Well made. Thought our staffies would love since they live tugging with each other. Sadly not something they seek out. We love ALL the benebone chews though!

Durable fun enrichment toy
Size: 1 Pack, Style: Pawbler
I had been wanting to buy one of these kinds of toys for some time but thought that the other brands I had seen were too pricey so this was a great compromise for the price. My 5 yr old Portuguese water dog loves it. He spent 25 min playing with it the first day. The trick is to find a treat that is just big enough where it doesn’t fall out right away so it makes it challenging and fun for them. He has been chewing on it a lot for a week and it has not broken or shown signs of damage. One thing to note is that there is a small hole on the bottom of the toy so you cannot freeze liquids in it without covering the hole in some way so that would be my only complaint. Besides that it’s a great toy that keeps him busy and happy.

Dog doesn’t care for it
Size: 1 Pack, Style: Bone
Hard to review product for its durability because my dog has never chewed it once. Doesn’t care about it at all. The bone feels rugged but smells like playdoh. It’s sat on the floor for over a month untouched.

Pawbler FAIL: First time our dog bit the ball, it popped open and dumped all the kibble.
Size: 1 Pack, Style: Pawbler
I would not recommend! We have a 48# dog and within minutes of giving it to him, the Pawbler was open and all of the kibble was in a pile on the ground. I had washed and dried the Pawbler, added kibble, and tightened the lid as tight as possible. Imagine my surprise when, within minutes of giving it to him, the lid was off and all the kibble was on the ground. I thought it was a fluke so then I made an extra effort to make sure the lid was super tight...and the same thing happened. This time there was no food inside so he started chewing on the two parts. Within minutes of that, he'd chewed/damaged the rubber on both the body and the lid. I took it away as I didn't want him to destroy/eat any of the rubber bits. I was surprised he could even get the Pawbler in his mouth. It's heavy and he is a medium sized dog. He has the Benebone Bone, the WestPaw bone, the WestPaw ring that he chews on all of the time and none of those are showing any type of wear so to see this opened/chewed within 15 minutes makes me think this was defective. I am returning and hoping for a refund. DO NOT BUY! Poor value for the money. Not durable. Not chew resistant.

Just what I was looking for to slow my large dog while eating
Size: 1 Pack, Style: Pawbler, Size: 1 Pack, Style: Pawbler
I needed something for my 50-pound dog to slow down her eating. The usual slow-feeder bowls and mats weren't really slowing her down much and I wanted her to have to think a little bit. She's not smart enough for puzzles though. So I got this kibble dispensing toy. My dog is not a chewer so I don't have to worry about her destroying it. LOVE: holds a little more than a cup of kibble, dispenses different sized kibbles, heavy weight so it wobbled around a lot without going too far away, QUIET- I couldn't bear the noise of hard plastic dispensers clacking around and this one is very quiet on our hardwood floors, kept the dog busy for at least 20 minutes. It's really all I was hoping it would be. And, well, as you can see in the video, the cat is happy about it too... As with all of these dispensers, there will be a couple of kibbles left inside that are hard to get out. But that gave my dog something to do overnight. She spent a long time getting that last kibble out. The slight scent they add to the natural rubber is not a problem at all. This dispenser is absolutely worth the money, it's going to last us a very, very long time.
