Aeonium arboreum plants are exceptionally easy to propagate by seeds and stem cuttings. So, you can quickly grow your collection with a sharp knife by following a few simple steps.

Watering Needs 

Overwatering should be avoided at all costs as the purple rose is highly vulnerable to root rot if kept in constantly damp soil. It's important to allow the soil to fully dry out between each watering, and if you're unsure whether or not it's time for another drink, err on the side of caution and give it some extra time. 

Although desert succulents like Aeonium atropurpureum are able to survive months without water. As such, it is able to store water in its leaves and stems. When the soil is dry to the touch, it is an indication that the plant needs water. So, pay close attention to this purple beauty watering needs; you'll be able to keep your purple rose tree healthy and happy for years to come! 

In the summer months, aeoniums can go dormant and don't need water unless the weather is extremely dry. During the winter growing period, water the purple rose moderately every two to three weeks.   

Light Requirements 

The Purple rose requires a lot of light and should be grown in either full sun or part shade. New plants can get burned in full direct sunlight as they were probably grown in a greenhouse; therefore, gradually increase their exposure to sunlight so that it doesn't get burned by the intense rays. 

When grown in full sun, the foliage of Aeonium atropurpureum turns almost black - talk about adding incredible interest to your outdoor space! On the other hand, if you grow it in partial shade, the leaf rosette takes on a reddish-purple hue with a green center. 

You can even grow purple aeonium indoors! Just make sure to place them near southern and western windows for optimal sunlight exposure. Don't leave them languishing in dim light, though - move them outdoors from time to time for 4 - 6 hours at least when natural light is scarce (like during winter).  Remember, Purple rose tree aeoniums will not go dormant if they are kept indoors or in a shaded area. They can still grow well in these conditions, but they may grow more slowly than they would outdoors. 

With proper care and attention paid to their light requirements, purple roses are sure to be statement pieces wherever they grow! 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

Purple roses like very airy, porous, nutrient-rich soil with a pH of 5.6 - 6.5, Succulents require fast-draining soil that dries completely between waterings. Your soil must have a sandy texture and a low water-holding capacity, just like desert soil.  Soggy wet soil can damage your tree aeonium and contributes to bacterial and fungal rot. In addition, because of a lack of oxygen, soggy soil substitutes air pockets with water, resulting in an anaerobic environment that can kill your healthy plants. 

 As an alternative, you can create your own potting mix by combining equal portions of perlite, coarse sand, peat moss, and good natural potting soil. Ideally, you want to use our specialized potting mix that contains organic mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your aeonium arboreum var. atropurpureum to thrive.  

Ideally, you should look for a natural fertilizer with an approximate blend of 5-10-5 that is higher in phosphorus than nitrogen. The best choice is to use a natural fertilizer as they last longer and keep your soil alive by adding other beneficial compounds and microbes that encourage plant health and nutrient absorption. 

Hardiness Zones & more 

The purple aeonium can't stand frost or too much humidity, therefore it needs warm, dry conditions. A well-draining potting mix and drainage holes in the potting container will help you maintain temperatures and prevent too much moisture. They can therefore be cultivated year-round outside in USDA zones 9 through 11. 

The ideal temperature for the purple rose tree is 65-75 degrees Fahrenheit, it can survive moderate winter temperatures as long as the soil is not wet and the temperature does not drop below 35 degrees F. 

Frost can be damaging to the purple rose, causing the leaves to become soft and mushy. If the plant is exposed to frost for an extended period of time, it may die. It is important to protect the plant from frost by bringing it indoors or covering it with a frost blanket when temperatures are expected to drop below freezing. 

Give this Aeonium arboreum atropurpureum - purple rose succulent - a try if you're looking for an easy plant to care for!

Was skeptical but it worked out of the box
Style Name: MacBook Air 13" (M4), Configuration: 3 years, Style Name: MacBook Air 13" (M4), Configuration: 3 years
Was skeptical at first but decided to pull the plug and get the m4 laptop with 3 years of apple care and it works. Haven't even opened an email or anything, laptop was still fresh out of the box. When I remembered I bought apple care and decided to check. Applied instantly as far as I know once I linked my apple account on the first boot up with internet! Good stuff

DO NOT PURCHASE WITH YOUR MACBOOK OR OTHER APPLE DEVICES
Style Name: MacBook Air 13" (M4), Configuration: 3 years, Style Name: MacBook Air 13" (M4), Configuration: 3 years
I bought this along with my MacBook. And here is why you SHOULDN'T: 1. They NEVER sent me an AppleCare+ Agreement. You will only be able to download a General Terms & Conditions file. 2. I bought: AppleCare+ for 13-inch MacBook Air (M4) (3 years) and in the General Terms & Conditions that I downloaded, looking for my AppleCare+ Agreement #, it NEVER mentioned Macbook Air as a covered device. It was meant for other smaller devices, which is why it's cheaper. 3. Like I mentioned, since I never received an agreement, I never got an agreement #. 4. Since this AppleCare wasn't actually meant for a MacBook, it didn't connect automatically to my computer. So when I went to talk to Apple and Amazon, without an Agreement # you can do ANYTHING. If you purchase it, read through your General Terms and Conditions and find an excuse to ask for a FULL REFUND. Since this didn't cover my computer, I was thankfully able to get one, but it was a pain trying to talk to customer support and apple.

It worked! Apple Care was added to my device when I received it!
Style Name: MacBook Pro 14" (M4 Pro/M4 Max), Configuration: 3 years
I purchased an MacBook and AppleCare+ at the same time. A day/two after the purchase I received an email from Amazon that the AppleCare+ was in software and go to digital download. When I downloaded it was just the agreement. Then I started reading all the negative reviews on nightmare experience with Amazon and AppleCare+ not being added. I was very nervous and mentally prepare for the nightmare that lie ahead which having to call Amazon multiple times and then having to call Apple multiple times. To my surprise, right after Amazon delivered the MacBook (I got notification your item was delivered) I got another email from Amazon that AppleCare+ was added the laptop with agreement number and serial number of the laptop I received. I checked Apple's coverage site and sure enough Apple site showed AppleCare+ coverage tied the MacBook. I didn't even open the box or turn it on and see the AppleCare+ coverage. Hopefully this gives some insight to future buyers of AppleCare+ from Amazon!!!

DO NOT PURCHASE APPLECARE+ THROUGH AMAZON (Please read before making a decision)
Style Name: MacBook Air 13" (M4), Configuration: 3 years
I rarely write reviews like this, but DO NOT PURCHASE APPLECARE+ THROUGH AMAZON. Just over a month ago, I purchased an Apple MacBook Air (m4) with AppleCare+. The AppleCare+ wasn't populating on the laptop, so after calls with Apple Support and Apple Agreement Administration, they found that AMAZON sent them the approved agreement with the device serial number then abruptly canceled it the following day. This happened over a month ago, and I was not notified nor have I received a refund. I would not have known it was canceled if not for Apple Support and Apple Agreement Administration. The only recourse is to receive a refund from Amazon--which is NOT automatic, I am fighting for this--and purchase AppleCare+ directly through Apple. Had all this taken place after the 60-days purchasing the MacBook Air (I'm currently one week short of this deadline), then I would be SOL on being able to cover my device. PURCHASE AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION/RISK AND CHECK THAT APPLECARE+ IS APPROVED AND ACTIVE ON YOUR DEVICE. Otherwise, play it safe and activate directly through Apple.

Worked fine for me 🙌🏽
Style Name: MacBook Air 13" (M4), Configuration: 3 years
I read a lot of comments that said there was an issue with their purchase of AppleCare+, I did not have any of those experiences. AppleCare+ was on the laptop (MacBook Air, 13-inch 2025) automatically. I received an email with my confirmation of AppleCare+ coverage, along with my agreement number, product serial number and expiration date. There was nothing I needed to do on my end, because as I said it had already been added to my computer and attached to my iCloud account. — I hate that there are so many bad experiences and hope everything works out for anyone experiencing a nightmare but I can only recommend based on my experience, 10/10.
