Plant Care Guide
Light
As with most succulents, Crassulas grow best in full sun or partial shade. In hot summers, more shade may be necessary.
Water
Check the soil for dampness once every week or so. If dry, add about a half cup of water, keeping in mind that any excess will build up in the bottom and should be avoided. Water should be applied to soil, not to the plant itself.
Level of Care
Easy! Just place in bright sunlight and don't overwater.
Air Purifying
Plants remove toxins that can build up in indoor spaces. A general rule of thumb is 1 medium houseplant per 100 square feet of space effectively cleans the air we breathe.
Fertilizer
Feed with a mild cactus fertilizer about once a month during the growing season. Do not fertilize in winter.
Temperature
Crassulas are generally more cold hardy than other succulents, but for best results keep within a range of 40-100°F. Grown outdoors, Crassulas are hardy in USDA zones 6-11.
Soil
When repotting the succulents, use a well-draining Cacti/Succulent Potting Mix for best results.
Pruning & Propagation
Prune damaged areas by cutting to the stem. To propagate, plant cuttings in soil.
Pet Friendly
Sorry! Crassulas are mildly toxic if consumed by pets. Love succulents? Play it safe and opt for an Echeveria or other pet-friendly plant.
