Crassula sarcocaulis

Most species of Crassula are quite small, but a few are tall enough to be shrubby (the jade tree, Crassula ovata, is a well-known example). Another shrubby species is Crassula sarcocaulis, native to the eastern part of South Africa as well as neighboring Lesotho and Eswatini. Its stems are smooth and grayish, but the lower part of the trunk can develop peeling bark that adds to its visual appeal. It is one of the most cold-tolerant of the Crassula species, able to endure temperatures down to at least 20 F (-7 C). The tiny flowers may be white (as shown here) or pink.

This is a plant i’ve been trying to find for a while now, and I just found this one by chance!

An update on the Crassula planter! (Can’t remember if I actually posted it before) I’m really happy with the desert-y look I was able to give it. The biggest challenge is that the larger one needs a little more water than the others and it ends up shrivelling quite a bit before I can give it more so the others don’t get overwatered.

The branchy, shrubby-looking on is Crassula sarcocaulis, the textured on is Crassula namaquensis, and the one with the triangular leaves and flowers is Crassula deceptor.

C. namaquensis is my favorite one texturally and it feels like those sugar coated gummy peaches when it needs water!

I’m hoping these can flower at the same time one day since they’d be cool to try and breed!

I regret to inform everyone that I have been enticed by yet another unusual plant. This is Crassula sarcocaulis! It’s is miniature succulent shrub that’s good for bonsai-type aesthetics. I thought it was a sedum at first (though the cross phylotaxis gives it away as a Crassula). 

I went and combined it with my other Crassulas to create a xeric shrub planter with excellent desert aesthetics!I haven’t raised this species before so I’m not sure how well they it get along with the others, but I’m hoping I won’t have to separate them!

The other plants are Crassula namaquensis and Crassula deceptor. Also feat. the rare and very powerful Fynbos shark and crab.

Crassula sarcocaulis

Crassula is the genus from which the Crassulaceae (or Stonecrop Family) takes its name, and there are many species found throughout southern Africa. The majority of these are quite small, but a few are shrubs - the Jade Tree, Crassula ovata, is a well-known example. Crassula sarcocaulis also has a shrubby habit, though it is smaller than the jade tree, typically growing to a height of less than 2 feet (60 cm). In form, it looks very much like a miniature tree, and it is sometimes used in dish gardens or planters to give the feel of a tree in a miniature landscape. The tiny white flowers emerge in fall to early winter. This species has a wide distribution in eastern South Africa, as well as several neighboring countries. This is a region with summer rainfall and dry winters, but C. sarcocaulis is adaptable enough to grow in winter-rainfall regions as well, as long as some supplemental water is provided in summer.
