Common Name(s): Dwarf Jade Plant, Compact Crassula
Origin: Native to rocky, arid regions of South Africa.
Description:
Meet the Crassula Compacta Nana—a charming, slow-growing succulent that mimics a miniature tree. Its tiny, fleshy leaves are a rich, deep green and grow in tight, geometric rows along sturdy stems, creating a textured, shrub-like appearance. Over time, the stems develop a woody texture, enhancing its bonsai-like aesthetic. Perfect for small spaces, terrariums, or as a serene desk companion, this petite plant adds structure and tranquility to modern interiors or fairy gardens.
Care:
Thrives in bright, indirect light but tolerates gentle morning sun (avoid harsh midday rays to prevent leaf burn). Plant in a gritty, well-draining succulent mix and water only when the soil is completely dry—overwatering is its downfall. Hardy and drought-tolerant, it prefers temperatures above 10°C (50°F). Ideal for beginners, busy plant parents, or anyone craving a low-maintenance green accent.
Pet Friendly: ❌ Toxic to pets – Keep this compact beauty out of reach of curious cats and dogs.
