Crassula cotyledonis

Family: Crassulaceae, Genus: Crassula

Description:

Crassula cotyledonis is a low-growing succulent native to the rocky landscapes of Namaqualand and the Karoo in South Africa. It forms a sparse rosette with light grey-green, ovate leaves covered in velvety, backward-pointing hairs. The plant's leaves can turn pink along the margins when exposed to full sun, adding a touch of color to its appearance. In spring and summer, it produces tiny, cream-to-greenish flowers in rounded clusters on elongated stems. This drought-tolerant plant thrives in well-drained soil and requires minimal watering, making it an excellent choice for dry, sunny locations. Crassula cotyledonis is easy to propagate through leaf cuttings and is resistant to USDA zones 9-11, making it a versatile addition to any succulent collection.
