Graptosedum 'Nova' Crest
Graptosedum 'Nova' Crest is a captivating succulent that stands out for its unusual, crested growth pattern. Unlike the typical rosette formation of its parent plant, Graptosedum 'Nova', the crested version develops fascinating, fan-shaped structures that give it a distinct, sculptural appearance. The leaves, thick and fleshy, transition from green to striking shades of copper and bronze, with the most intense colours emerging in the cooler months.
Originating from the hybridization of Graptopetalum paraguayense and Sedum, this succulent brings together the best traits of both parent plants. 'Nova' Crest is particularly hardy and thrives in a variety of Australian climates. To maintain its vibrant hues, it’s essential to provide plenty of sunlight, ideally in a bright, indirect setting. Over-watering and excessive fertilization should be avoided to prevent the plant from losing its unique coloration and form. Instead, the soak-and-dry method, allowing for extended periods of dryness between watering, is ideal.
This succulent is not only visually appealing but also relatively low-maintenance, making it perfect for beginners and collectors alike. 'Nova' Crest is a vigorous grower, readily producing offsets that can be propagated easily, allowing for a continuous display of its unique, crested form. Whether grown as a standalone specimen or combined with other succulents, Graptosedum 'Nova' Crest is a stunning addition to any collection, bringing an artistic touch to any space.

Succulents naturally change in colour, size and form throughout the year. Many develop richer colours and more compact growth during periods of seasonal stress, particularly through cooler months and brighter conditions, while warmer or lower-light conditions may produce greener, softer growth.
The plant you receive may therefore vary from the product images depending on the season, its stage of growth and current growing conditions. These natural variations are part of the character of living plants and do not affect their quality or health.
