Aeonium urbicum is a type of succulent plant that belongs to the Crassulaceae family. It is found exclusively on the island of Tenerife in the Canary Islands, specifically in the northern region from Teno point to the Anaga peninsula. It was previously thought to also exist on the neighboring island of La Gomera, but in 1999 it was determined to be a separate species called Aeonium appendiculatum. Aeonium urbicum has two varieties, var. urbicum and var. meridionale.
