Plant/Product Description:
Crassula Springtime is a visually appealing succulent known for its vibrant, fleshy leaves that grow in dense, compact clusters. The leaves are a rich green with a hint of red or orange along the edges when exposed to full sunlight, adding a striking contrast to the plant. This cultivar forms a low, mounding shape, making it an ideal choice for containers, hanging baskets, or succulent arrangements. In late winter to early spring, Crassula Springtime produces small, star-shaped white or pink flowers that add a delicate, colorful touch to its otherwise vibrant foliage. Its compact size and ease of care make it a great addition to both indoor and outdoor plant collections.
Plant Care Notes:
- Sunlight: Prefers bright, indirect light to full sun. 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 Springtime is generally summer dormant, meaning it requires less water and growth slows during the hotter 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 Springtime is non-toxic to humans and pets, making it a safe addition to homes and gardens.
