    •   Crassula 'Ogre Ears', also called Ogre Ears Jade, is a rare succulent from the Crassulaceae family native to the rocky, arid regions of South Africa and Mozambique. It evolved to grow in nutrient-poor soils with extended dry periods and has become sought-after in succulent collections worldwide.

        Its tubular, finger-like leaves curl and pucker at the tips, resembling a fantastical creature's ears. The thick, fleshy foliage ranges from jade green to rosy-red at the margins, with deeper red appearing in bright light and cooler temperatures. It develops an upright, branching growth pattern that builds a compact, tree-like form over time.

        Small, pale pink to white star-shaped flowers appear in late autumn through winter in tight clusters. The blooms carry a light, subtle sweetness and emerge when most houseplants are dormant, triggered by a drop in nighttime temperatures. Move it to a cooler spot in autumn to encourage this winter floral display.

        It tolerates dry air and can go without water for extended periods. A heavy pot anchors its upright growth, and it benefits from summer placement on a sheltered patio or balcony. Keep it on a high shelf or in a room away from cats, dogs, and young children, as it is toxic if ingested.

    •   Crassula ovata 'Ogre Ears' Jade grows well in bright indirect light and scorches easily in harsh, direct afternoon sun.

        Water it deeply every 2-3 weeks in summer and reduce watering to once a month in winter.

        Crassula 'Ogre Ears' does best in a well-draining succulent and cactus mix blended with extra perlite.

        It prefers temperatures between 65-80°F and should be protected from frost below 32°F.

        Crassula 'Ogre Ears' is a slow to moderate grower that appreciates a diluted balanced fertilizer once in spring and once in summer.

        It is hardy in USDA zones 9-11, tolerating brief dips to around 25-30°F but performing best where frosts are rare or absent. It grows outdoors year-round in California, Arizona, Texas, Florida, Hawaii, Nevada, New Mexico, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina. Along milder coastal stretches of Oregon and Washington, it can spend extended periods outdoors with light protection from hard freezes.

    • Q: How often should I water Crassula ovata 'Ogre Ears' Jade?
      A: During the growing season, let the soil dry out completely between waterings. In winter, once a month is sufficient.

      Q: What window placement works best for this succulent?
      A: Crassula ovata 'Ogre Ears' Jade grows well a few feet from a bright east or west-facing window. Harsh south-facing afternoon sun causes leaf scorch; filter that light with sheer curtains or move it slightly back from the pane.

      Q: Is Crassula 'Ogre Ears' safe to keep if you have pets?
      A: It should not be eaten or nibbled by cats, dogs, or children. Place it on a high shelf or in a room your animals cannot access.

      Q: How fast does the plant grow?
      A: Crassula 'Ogre Ears' builds its tree-like structure slowly over several years, with growth rate improved by consistent bright light and seasonal fertilizer application.

      Q: Can Ogre Ears Jade survive a week without water while you travel?
      A: You can leave it without water for up to 10 days.

      Q: How do you propagate this succulent?
      A: Ogre Ears Jade propagates readily from stem or leaf cuttings allowed to callous for a day or two before placing in dry succulent mix. Roots typically develop within a few weeks in warm, bright conditions.

      🌵 For Succulents
      When your package arrives, you may notice a bit of loose soil in the box. This is completely normal during shipping.
      Please remove your plants from their packaging right away and follow the care instructions included with your order. Succulents prefer to dry out between waterings, so only water when the soil is completely dry.
      Succulents are resilient plants and typically recover quickly once they settle into their new environment. Give them a few days to adjust before placing them in direct sunlight, and avoid fertilizing right away.
