Description: It is relatively fast growing, somewhat shrubby and sprawling plant, up to 18” (46 cm) tall. It blooms with inconspicuous pale yellow inconspicuous flowers in spring.
How to Grow and Care: Crassula are easy to grow. As with all succulents, overwatering is sure to be fatal. Never let your Crassula sit in water. If you water from beneath by letting the plant sit in a saucer of water, make sure to pour off any excess water after a few minutes.
Plants can be easily propagated from a single leaf: sprout leaves by placing them into a succulent or cacti mix, then covering the dish until they sprout.
Repot as needed, preferably during the warm season.
