Crassula Ovata Plant

Crassula Ovata Plant

🌱 Appearance

  • Leaves: Thick, fleshy, oval-shaped, deep green (sometimes with red edges in bright light).

  • Stems: Woody and sturdy, giving it a miniature tree-like appearance.

  • Size: Can grow up to 3 ft indoors and even larger outdoors in ideal conditions.

  • Flowers: Small star-shaped white or pink flowers in clusters (usually in winter or spring).


🌿 Care Tips

  1. Light: Needs bright, indirect light—can tolerate direct sunlight for part of the day (helps red edging).

  2. Watering: Allow soil to dry completely between watering; overwatering can cause root rot. Water sparingly in winter.

  3. Temperature: Thrives in 65–75°F; avoid frost.

  4. Humidity: Low humidity is fine — ideal for indoor environments.

  5. Soil: Well-draining succulent or cactus mix.

  6. Fertilizer: Feed monthly during growing season (spring–summer) with a diluted succulent fertilizer.


🍀 Special Care Notes

📌 Fun fact: Crassula Ovata is also called the “Money Plant” in feng shui and is believed to bring financial success.
