Aeonium cuneatum is a succulent plant of the genus Aeonium. It has a large rosette and no stem. The leaves are smooth but have a grey shine to the upper surface which can be rubbed. It offshoots easily which makes a large group of aeoniums across the ground. The flower is yellow and more open than some of the Aeonium flowers.
The specific epithet comes from Latin, and means "wedge-shaped;" this refers to the shape of the leaves.[1]
