Plant Category:
Succulent
Plant/Product Description:
Crassula ovata 'Gollum', commonly known as Jade Gollum, is a unique and striking variety of the popular jade plant (Crassula ovata). This cultivar features elongated, tubular leaves that resemble the fingers of the character Gollum, which is how it earned its common name. The leaves are a vibrant green and may develop a red tint along the edges when exposed to bright sunlight. In late winter to early spring, Crassula ovata 'Gollum' produces small, star-shaped white or pink flowers, adding a delicate touch to its unusual form. This compact and easy-care succulent is perfect for containers, windowsills, or as part of succulent arrangements.
Plant Care Notes:
- Sunlight: Prefers full sun but can tolerate bright, indirect light. Full sun encourages the best leaf color and promotes compact growth.
- Watering: Water thoroughly when the soil is dry to the touch. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings to prevent root rot.
- Soil: Requires a well-draining cactus or succulent mix with added perlite or pumice for optimal drainage.
- Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 70°F and 85°F (21°C to 29°C). It is not frost-tolerant and should be protected from freezing temperatures.
- Dormancy: Crassula ovata 'Gollum' is generally winter dormant, meaning it requires less water and growth slows during the cooler months.
- Propagation: Easily propagated by leaf or stem cuttings. Allow the cut ends to callous before replanting in well-draining soil.
- Pests: Generally pest-resistant but may occasionally attract mealybugs or aphids. Regular inspections help maintain plant health.
Toxicity:
Crassula ovata 'Gollum' is non-toxic to humans and pets, making it a safe addition to homes and gardens.
