Caramel Leaf Succulent

Succulent type: Leaf succulent (Stores water in its leaves)

This giant leaf succulent grows up to 136 feet (41.5 meters) tall. The very narrow, elongated stem is peach, and is dotted with small orange spines. The lumpy leaves are emerald with caramel tips. Copious amounts of them grow on thick, gnarled, orange branches that are tall, rigid and upright. The leaves are sturdy, but take some effort to detach.

It is very slow growing, taking 30 years to reach maturity. Once mature, a single flower with solid peach petals decorated with yellow dots and a bronze central disk grows at the top, reappearing every year. The flower head is an uncoordinated mess of 52 curved petals. It has a fairly strong scent that smells like a damp log.

The leaf succulent's skin is thick, the olive flesh is smooth, and the caramel sap is thin.
