Care Requirements

Below, you’ll find key tips tailored to this species’ requirements. Whether you’re new to plant care or have plenty of experience, these guidelines are here to support you in keeping your green companion healthy and vibrant.

  1. Planting:
    • Choose a location with bright, indirect light; a south-facing window is ideal.
    • Plant in well-draining soil, such as a cactus or succulent mix.
    • Ensure the pot has good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.
    • Repotting is only necessary every few years, as Crassula prefers slightly crowded conditions.
  2. Watering:
    • Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings.
    • During the growing season (spring and summer), water approximately once every two weeks.
    • Reduce watering in fall and winter when the plant is dormant.
    • Overwatering is the most common cause of problems with Crassula, so err on the side of underwatering.
  3. Pruning:
    • Prune to shape the plant and remove any dead or damaged leaves.
    • Pinching back the tips of the branches can encourage a fuller, bushier plant.
    • Pruning can also help control the size of the plant, especially if it becomes too large for its space.
  4. Fertilizing:
    • Fertilize sparingly with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer diluted to half strength during the growing season.
    • Crassula does not require frequent fertilization; once or twice a year is sufficient.
    • Avoid fertilizing in the winter when the plant is dormant.
  5. Pest and Disease Control:
    • Crassula is relatively pest-resistant but can occasionally be affected by mealybugs or scale insects; treat with insecticidal soap or neem oil if necessary.
    • Root rot is the most common disease, usually caused by overwatering or poor drainage.
    • Ensure good air circulation and avoid overcrowding plants to prevent fungal issues.
