Crassula Multicava

Fairy Crassula (Crassula multicava) is a charming succulent native to South Africa, particularly found in the Eastern Cape and KwaZulu-Natal regions. This low-growing, perennial plant is characterized by its fleshy, green leaves that are often tinged with red at the edges, forming attractive rosettes. The plant typically reaches a height of about 6 to 12 inches and spreads outwards, making it an excellent ground cover. In late winter to spring, Fairy Crassula produces small, star-shaped white or pale pink flowers that cluster atop slender stems, adding a delicate touch to its lush foliage. This species thrives in well-drained soils and prefers full sun to partial shade, making it suitable for xeriscaping and low-water gardens. Drought-tolerant and relatively easy to care for, Crassula multicava is popular among succulent enthusiasts and gardeners for its resilience and ornamental appeal. Additionally, it can propagate easily from leaf or stem cuttings, making it a delightful addition to succulent collections and gardens.
