Plant/Product Description:
Crassula platyphylla 'Burgundy' is a striking succulent that features large, thick, and flat, oval-shaped leaves with vibrant burgundy and green tones. The leaves are densely arranged along thick, upright stems, giving the plant a unique rosette appearance. As the plant matures, the burgundy coloration becomes more pronounced, especially with increased sun exposure. In late winter to early spring, Crassula platyphylla 'Burgundy' produces small, star-shaped white flowers that contrast beautifully with the rich foliage. This low-maintenance, easy-care plant is ideal for containers, succulent arrangements, or as a feature plant in garden beds.
Plant Care Notes:
- Sunlight: Prefers full sun but can tolerate bright, indirect light. Full sun enhances the color and vibrancy of the leaves.
- 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 platyphylla 'Burgundy' is generally summer dormant, requiring less water during the hotter months when growth slows.
- 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 platyphylla 'Burgundy' is non-toxic to humans and pets, making it a safe addition to homes and gardens.
