Crassula tetragona quick care tips

Watering

Crassula tetragona is a drought-tolerant succulent variety, so watering around once per week in the peak growing season is advised. Ensure the soil dries between waterings following the 3 Ds: drench, drain and dry. It is also advised to completely stop watering when conditions are frosty, keeping the plant dry for several months at a time over winter.

Feeding

Crassula tetragona likes to be fed to bring out its best forms and colours. We recommend feeding with a liquid seaweed feed every 2 weeks in the main growing season from April to September. A feed we recommend is the one from our friends at LittleGreenSeaweed.

Ideal soil

Crassula tetragona needs free draining soil to thrive. We recommend a mixture of 1/3 John Innes no.2, 1/3 perlite and 1/3 coconut coir. The soil mix we offer here is similar in composition to this.

Crassula tetragona

Native to South Africa.

A very structural Crassula. It features a naturally branching form and a fantastic leaf structure. Reminiscent of a menorah. It flowers in summer with cream/white cluster flowers at the branch tips, only when it reaches maturity after 4+ years of good growth.

An excellent plant for adding structure and height to any arrangement.
