Dudleya abramsii, commonly known as Abrams’ liveforever, is a succulent plant native to the rocky outcrops and cliffs of coastal California and northern Baja California. It is a small, slow-growing perennial that forms rosettes of fleshy leaves, which can vary in color from green to red-tinged, particularly under stress or with age. Dudleya abramsii typically produces an inflorescence bearing up to 15 bright yellow flowers in the spring and early summer, which are attractive to pollinators such as bees and hummingbirds. The plant can reach up to 12 inches (30 cm) in height and width when in flower.

Abrams’ liveforever is valued in cultivation for its drought tolerance and its striking form, which makes it a popular choice for rock gardens, succulent collections, and as a container plant. It requires minimal water once established, well-draining soil, and thrives in full sun to partial shade. While generally low-maintenance, it can be susceptible to root rot if overwatered or planted in poorly draining soils. In addition to its horticultural appeal, Dudleya abramsii plays a role in its native ecosystem by providing nectar for local pollinators. Due to its conservation status, it is important to source plants from reputable nurseries that do not collect from the wild.CC BY-SA 4.0
