These crassulas are quite drought tolerant, but will usually need some supplemental irrigation during summer, at least every two weeks to a month once established. This Crassula holds its leaves indefinitely when watered correctly, and lower leaves shriveling up to expose stems is a sign that the plant is under watered. | |

Notas de cultivo
Low growing bushy crassulas need meticulous weeding in the garden; otherwise the weeds get tangled and intermingled with the succulents, and they are difficult to remove.
These smaller crassulas are an excellent choice for pots, where they can be appreciated up close, but they don't want to be in a lot of hot sun in a small pot without regular water.
Looks best with a cut back every year or two when it starts to crowd itself.
Very useful as a fast growing green filler.
Interés especial
Very tough plant is easily propagated, even by simply laying it on a well draining mix.
