Crassula capitella ‘Green’, commonly known as Green Pagoda or Green Crassula, is a distinctive succulent known for its unique leaf arrangement and attractive coloration. Here’s a detailed overview:
Appearance:
- Leaves: Crassula capitella ‘Green’ features fleshy, triangular leaves that are arranged in a rosette or stacked formation. The leaves are generally green, sometimes with a reddish or pinkish tint on the edges or tips, depending on light conditions and temperature.
- Growth: The plant forms a compact rosette with overlapping leaves. As it matures, it can develop a dense, pagoda-like appearance due to the stacking of the leaves. The plant’s shape can be somewhat columnar or cylindrical.
Growth:
- Shape: It typically maintains a rosette or pagoda shape with overlapping leaves. The rosette can become quite full and rounded as the plant matures.
- Rate: Crassula capitella ‘Green’ grows slowly but steadily. It produces new leaves from the center of the rosette and can form offsets or “pups” around the base, contributing to a fuller appearance over time.
Flowers:
- Blooming Period: The plant may produce flowers in late summer to early fall.
- Flowers: The flowers are small, star-shaped, and usually white or pale pink. They appear in clusters on tall flower stalks that rise above the rosette.
Care:
- Light: Crassula capitella ‘Green’ prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate some direct sunlight. Adequate light helps maintain the plant’s compact form and vibrant coloration. The plant may develop more intense colors with good light exposure.
- Soil: Use a well-draining soil mix, such as a cactus or succulent mix. Proper drainage is crucial to prevent root rot.
- Watering: Water only when the soil is completely dry. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so let the soil dry out between waterings. Reduce watering during the winter months when the plant is less active.
- Temperature: The plant prefers warmer temperatures and is sensitive to frost. Ideal temperatures are between 15-25°C (60-75°F). Protect it from cold temperatures and ensure it has adequate warmth throughout the year.
Propagation:
- Offsets: The plant can be propagated from offsets or “pups” that grow around the base. These can be gently separated and potted up.
- Leaf Cuttings: It can also be propagated from leaf cuttings. Allow the leaf to callous over for a few days before planting it in well-draining soil. Keep the soil moist until new growth appears.
Crassula capitella ‘Green’ is valued for its unique leaf arrangement and attractive color, making it a popular choice for succulent collectors and enthusiasts. Its relatively easy care and distinctive appearance add to its appeal in indoor and outdoor succulent gardens.
