Common Name - Crassula spathulata
Country of Origin - S. Africa
How to grow - Crassula are easy plants to care for, they prefer full sun to partial shade, however during extreme heat in the summer the intense sunlight can burn the leaves. Will make an ideal house plant if given enough light. Watering wise make sure to avoid over watering by allowing to dry out between waterings, have a porous soil with good drainage and repot as needed. If given too much water they can grow too quickly and the stems will not have a chance to harden up and may flop, reduce watering and trim back if needed to remedy this. Lower light levels when the plant leans towards the light can make this issue worse.
Hardiness - 5c
Description - An unusual Crassula to the ones we normally grow in that its habit is more of ground cover than upright growing, glossy green foliage but can give off a stronger hint of red/orange to the margins of leaves when grown in full sun. Will tollerate partial shade as its habitat in the wild is around the edge of forests.
All plants will be shipped bare root. Grown in 9cm pot
