This tiny species, from southern Kenya and Tanzania, has numerous forms and appears to us to be an endpoint in the continuum between S. suffruticosa and S. gracilis. These plants are from material originally collected by Tom Grumbley, and these plants are propagated from material collected from his yard in Malindi, Kenya. These plants are distinguished from the typical by their long cylindrical leaves that generally are yellow-green. These plants are rooted offsets in one-gallon pots.
