Crassula ciliata
About Crassula ciliata
Plants in the Crassula genus are amazingly diverse and come in an incredible assortment of sizes and colors. Many of the ones we grow today are native to a small region in South Africa, which makes that diversity even more amazing! They're super low maintenance plants that can handle long periods of drought, so great if you're prone to skipping waters (we won't tell). 🫢 Make sure they get plenty of sunlight and that they're planted in a pot with a drainage hole and they'll be happy as can be!

How to fertilize Crassula ciliata
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Crassula ciliata after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

I was going through some older photos and I found Khaleesi when she was probably a year or two old! Look how little! 🥺🥺 Here she is now, in all of her glory after a trim and extra support. 🌟🪩🪇🧦👑🏺🔮🪬🏴☠️✨ #happyplants #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantaddict #succulentlove #succulentsquad #gollumjade #jade #growth #beforeandafter #greggers #greggang

Can my big beautiful jade recover from black spots on its leaves? I’ve sprayed neem oil on it and repotted it in a chunky mix with systemic granules. #Crassula

The leaves are showing brown spotting, as if they had been bit or burned. What could it be due to & what should I do ? #Crassula

My girl has gone floppy! I’ve had her for 7 years now and not repotted 😬😬 don’t be mad, I was gifted her and didn’t take much interest until recently. She’s suddenly super droopy and I don’t know why. Never had issues until now. Please help ♥️

Dropping leaves Hello! My jade has dropped a significant amount of leaves over the past year. It also has a white dustiness to it. The center branches do not want to stand but droop. I have been careful not to overwater it. Is my plant dying or am I hurting it somehow? I’ve had it for over a decade grown from a tiny baby.
