Description

Seaside Heliotrope is a succulent perennial herb that can grow up to 25 cm in length. Fleshy glaucous leaves that range in color from blue-green to yellowish gray-green are its defining feature. They are oblong and slender, reaching a maximum length of 4 cm. Spreading bunches of shoots emerge from a perennial taproot. Lateral roots also produce shoots. The flowers are born with coiled branches, same like all heliotropes.
