Like most Gasteria, it is slow-growing and forms pleasing clumps of plantlets over time.

(Gasteria, Natal beestong)
The succulent foliage clumps of Natal beestong are grayish green, relatively large and attractive, but the flowers are only subtly pretty and not as stunning at those of other Gasteria species. It is native to the eastern Cape of South Africa where it naturally exists on rocky hillsides, cliff faces with sandstone rock formations and rocky valleys, often under the cover of scrub and open shrubs. Like most Gasteria, it is slow-growing and forms pleasing clumps of plantlets over time....

(Salal)
Few evergreen shrubs solve as many problems for woodland home sites surrounded by excessive shade and clay-rich soils. Salal is a Pacific Coast native, growing in the understory of woodlands from California north to Washington and over a larger part of Alaska. It adapts well to the long dry season of California and yet stands just as well in the rain soaked Seattle woods, proving its adaptability.
Large leathery, emerald leaves give a truly lush appearance to these shrubs. They flower in early...
