Crassula 'Ivory Pagoda' is a striking succulent hybrid created by Myron Kimnach in 1962, born from a cross between Crassula perfoliata var. minor (formerly Crassula falcata) and Crassula barklyi. Its architectural form, reminiscent of a miniature pagoda, is defined by tightly stacked, triangular leaves coated in a silvery-white farina, giving it a frosted appearance that intensifies under bright sunlight.
Growing slowly, Crassula 'Ivory Pagoda' forms unbranched, columnar stems that can reach up to 12.5 cm tall. Young offsets often emerge at the plant's base, enhancing its sculptural appeal. In winter, it produces clusters of delicate cream-coloured to pale pink flowers, adding seasonal interest to its already captivating form.
This resilient succulent thrives in well-draining soil and full sun to partial shade, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation in Australian climates, particularly in frost-free regions. While it is relatively easy to care for, it is susceptible to mealybugs and fungal diseases if overwatered. Ensuring the soil remains dry between waterings is crucial to prevent root rot.
Propagation is straightforward through leaf cuttings, offsets, or division. Repotting is recommended during warmer months, ensuring dry soil and gentle handling of roots. Crassula 'Ivory Pagoda' offers a unique blend of form and texture, making it an appealing addition to any succulent collection, whether displayed in containers, rock gardens, or as a focal point in mixed plantings.
