  •   Crassula Orbicularis is a charming rosette succulent native to the rocky slopes and grasslands of South Africa, where it thrives in well-drained soils with plenty of sun and seasonal dry spells. As a member of the Crassula genus, it belongs to a group celebrated worldwide for toughness and low maintenance appeal. This easy care succulent is a wonderful choice for collectors and beginners alike.

      Crassula Orbicularis forms tight, symmetrical rosettes of rounded, spoon-shaped leaves that give it an almost geometric beauty. The leaves are typically green with slightly textured surfaces, and the plant stays compact while spreading gradually outward in a neat, upright rosette habit. Its tidy form and satisfying symmetry make it one of the most visually distinctive rosette succulents in the Crassula family.

      Crassula Orbicularis produces small, star-shaped flowers on slender upright stalks, typically in shades of white to pale pink. Blooms tend to appear in late winter to spring, and a cooler night temperature drop encourages the best flowering display. The blooms are delicate and add an unexpected airy charm to this already appealing plant.

      Crassula Orbicularis is wonderfully adaptable for both indoor and outdoor growing, and you can move it outside for summer to enjoy the fresh air, just be sure to cover it from heavy rain and bring it back in before frost. It is sensitive to being moved too frequently, so once it finds a happy spot, let it settle in. Rotate it occasionally for even growth, and keep it away from direct AC or heating vents. A great candidate for a bright windowsill, a sunny patio in warm months, or even a well-lit office with LED lighting, Crassula Orbicularis rewards minimal fuss with maximum charm.

  •   Crassula Orbicularis thrives in bright indirect light and can scorch in intense south-facing windows.

      Water Crassula Orbicularis thoroughly every 10-14 days in summer, less in winter, and let soil dry completely between waterings.

      Crassula Orbicularis performs best in a gritty, fast-draining succulent or cactus mix amended with perlite.

      Crassula Orbicularis prefers temperatures between 60-80°F (15-27°C) and is not frost tolerant below 30°F (-1°C).

      Crassula Orbicularis is a slow to moderate grower that needs fertilizing only once or twice during the active growing season.

      Crassula Orbicularis is hardy in USDA Zones 9-11, tolerating brief dips to around 30°F (-1°C) but not sustained frost. In the United States, it can be grown outdoors year-round across much of California, Arizona, Texas, Nevada, Hawaii, and Florida, as well as Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina. Along milder coastal stretches of Oregon and in parts of New Mexico and Arkansas that dip into Zone 7b-8, Crassula Orbicularis is best treated as a seasonal outdoor plant or brought inside before winter.
  • Q: How often should I water Crassula Orbicularis?
    A: Water Crassula Orbicularis every 10-14 days in the growing season, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. In winter, reduce watering to once every three to four weeks.

    Q: Is Crassula Orbicularis safe for pets?
    A: Crassula Orbicularis may be harmful if ingested by cats or dogs, so keep it on a high shelf out of reach of curious pets and toddlers. Always treat it with caution in households with animals.

    Q: How much light does Crassula Orbicularis need?
    A: Crassula Orbicularis thrives in bright indirect light and does well under office LEDs, but avoid direct harsh sun in south-facing windows to prevent leaf scorch.

    Q: How do I propagate Crassula Orbicularis?
    A: Crassula Orbicularis is easily propagated from offsets or leaf cuttings. Simply allow cuttings to callous for a day or two, then place them on well-draining succulent mix and keep lightly misted until roots form.

    Q: Can Crassula Orbicularis go outside in summer?
    A: Yes, Crassula Orbicularis loves spending summer outdoors in a bright, sheltered spot. Be sure to protect it from heavy rain and bring it back inside before temperatures drop near freezing.

    Q: How can I tell when Crassula Orbicularis needs water?
    A: Crassula Orbicularis will show you it is thirsty by developing slightly soft or lightly wilting leaves. Once you notice this, give it a thorough watering and it will perk back up quickly.

    🌵 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.
