Crassula swaziensis Seeds
South African Indigenous Succulent
Crassula is a large genus of succulent plants containing many species, including the popular Jade Plant, Crassula ovata. They are native to many parts of the globe, but cultivated varieties are almost exclusively from the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa. Crassulas make the most wonderful pot plants. They can also be grown indoors as house plants. Those that make excellent house plants are the glossy leaf varieties. Crassulas, given a rich, well-drained medium will grow fast and luxuriantly. Crassula swaziensis is a South African indigenous species from the Free State, Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal, Limpopo, Mpumalanga and North West Provinces. It is synonymously known as Crassula argyrophylla. Crassula swaziensis is a perennial with short branches of up 6 cm tall and rosulate hairy reddish leaves. From summer to autumn it has a flat-topped flower spike with pink buds which open to white flowers.
