Crassula Buddha's Temple
Crassula Buddha's Temple
Position: bright, direct light
Soil: freely draining potting compost
Rate of growth: slow
Hardiness: tender (indoors only)
The grey-green, scale-like leaves of this unusual succulent are tightly packed - one on top of the other - and gently curled at their tips. As the plant grows, quite distinctive square-shaped columns are formed, which become branching as the plant matures.Home care: During the growing season, water thoroughly (making sure the excess water drains away freely) whenever the compost begins to dry out, then water very sparingly in winter.
