Luminous Black Rose (2021)
The “Black Rose” aeonium (Aeonium arboreum ‘Zwartkop’) is a popular succulent in Southern California gardens. This one, lit by winter morning sunlight, looks like its yellow center is glowing.
The color of an aeonium’s center can vary from yellowish green to bright green. I’ve made it more yellow to enhance the glow, but otherwise this little plant (which is not a flower) appears just as I saw it on my morning walk.
