    Quick Care Guide

    Care Difficulty: This plant has very easy care needs.

    Light requirements: Crassula like a bright spot with some direct sunlight being beneficial. A sunny windowsill is the ideal place.

    Watering: Like many succulents allow the soil to dry out between waterings, reducing further in winter. Do not let this plant sit in water as this will increase the chances of root rot.

    Humidity: Does not need any additional humidity so will work well in average household conditions.

    Toxicity: Toxic to humans and pets

    Feeding: Enjoys a feed around mid-spring during its growing season.

    Repotting: Repot when it has outgrown its current container. Use a Cactus and succulent mix and pot up one size larger in a container with good drainage.
