Buddha's Temple has tall columns of stacked up leaves that look just like a pagoda. This slow grower will reach up to 6" and grows perfectly symmetrical, making it perfect for a Zen Garden. It is sensitive to getting too wet, so keep it happy with minimal watering.
This plant's leaves are very stiff and fold inward creating a cross right through its four corners. Its tips turn a slight gray and red with age and sunning. Does well with lots of sun or light shade. Will eventually grow branches and/or a big bloom on the top. It's not monocarpic so it does keep growing after flowering.
Full Sun, Part Shade, Protect from hot afternoon sun
Let dry before watering again - water deeply
Crassula is a genus of succulent plants within the Crassulaceae family, comprising about 200 accepted species. While native to various parts of the world, most cultivated Crassulas originate from the Eastern Cape of South Africa. These plants are characterized by alternating pairs of leaves along their stems, which can vary greatly in shape, size, and texture, often displaying colors highlighted with red, especially under stress. Crassulas range in size from less than an inch to six-foot shrubs and can be fuzzy, smooth, pointy, or round. They are usually propagated by stem or leaf cuttings and can tolerate mild frost, but extreme temperatures may cause them to lose leaves or die. A few species are monocarpic, dying after flowering. However, most show a burst of new growth after flowering.
