Crassula 'Green Pagoda' is a beautiful and much-branched succulent that is perfect for adding an interesting vertical element to your succulent garden. This hybrid succulent is believed to be the result of the cross between Crassula pyramidalis and Crassula rupestris, resulting in a unique and stunning plant.
The stems of this succulent grow up to 30 cm tall, and the thick fleshy triangular leaves are densely packed on slender upright stems in opposite pairs, forming square-shaped columns. The leaves are green with red margins, which adds an extra dimension of beauty to this plant. In summer, this plant produces beautiful terminal clusters of small white to pink flowers, which only enhance its charm.
Crassula 'Green Pagoda' is easy to grow, but like all succulents, it is susceptible to mealybugs and fungal diseases. Overwatering can be fatal, so it's essential to err on the side of too dry rather than too wet. Never let your plant sit in water, and if you water from beneath by letting the plant sit in a saucer of water, make sure to pour off any excess water after a few minutes.
Propagation of Crassula 'Green Pagoda' is easy and can be done by division, offsets, or leaf cuttings. The plant can be propagated from a single leaf by placing it into a potting mix for succulents and then covering the dish until it sprouts.
Repotting should be done as needed, preferably during the warm season. When repotting, ensure the soil is dry, then gently remove the pot, knock away the old soil from the roots, and remove any rotted or dead roots. Treat any cuts with a fungicide. Place the plant in its new pot and backfill it with potting soil, spreading the roots as you repot. Leave the plant dry for a week or so, then begin to water lightly to reduce the risk of root rot.
Crassula 'Green Pagoda' prefers bright light, and it is drought-tolerant. Overwatering can cause rot, so it's essential to water thoroughly when the soil has dried out and repeat as needed. This plant also benefits from regular feeding in spring and summer.
In conclusion, Crassula 'Green Pagoda' is a unique and stunning succulent that is easy to grow and adds an interesting vertical element to your succulent garden. Its triangular leaves and beautiful flowers make it a favorite among succulent enthusiasts, and it's sure to bring joy and beauty to any space it occupies.
