Crassula Pyramidalis
''Crassula'' is a genus of succulent plants containing about 200 accepted species, including the popular jade plant (''Crassula ovata''). They are members of the stonecrop family (Crassulaceae) and are native to many parts of the globe, but cultivated varieties originate almost exclusively from species from the Eastern Cape of South Africa. Crassulas are usually propagated by stem or leaf cuttings. Most cultivated forms will tolerate some small degree of frost, but extremes of cold or heat will cause them to lose foliage and die. Taxonomy ''Crassula'' was first formally described by Carl Linnaeus in 1753 with 10 species. Etymology The name crassula comes from the Latin adjective ''crassus'', meaning thick, referring to the thickening of the succulent leaves. Selected species *'' Crassula alata'' *''Crassula alba'' *'' Crassula alpestris'' (Sand-Coated Crassula) *'' Crassula alstonii'' *'' Crassula aquatica'' (common pigmyweed, water pygmyweed) *'' Crassula arborescens' ...

Crassula Capitella
''Crassula capitella,'' (red flames, red pagoda or campfire plant) is a perennial succulent plant native to southern Africa. Description An extremely variable species. The narrow, pointed, splayed ("propeller-like") leaves are initially a light green, but become a strong reddish colour in the sun. The leaves are stacked, and near the base of the rosette they are larger. Near the top of a rosette, the leaves gradually get smaller and change into floral bracts, as the stem forms a long, pointed inflorescence. It is a small, succulent herb (15–40 cm in height) - with stems that are either erect or rambling and mat-forming. Each stem forms roots at its internodes, which take root if the stem lies against the ground. ''C.capitella'' is mostly biennial, blooming in the summer, with small, white, star-shaped flowers forming all around each thick, upright stem. It grows to a height of about 6 inches tall, and will be damaged when exposed to temperatures below . [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
