Fairy crassula (Crassula multicava) Neville and Anja
Crassula multicava is a hardy groundcover that thrives in damp or dry areas and in light to deep shade. It is the perfect solution for difficult beds under trees – plant masses of them together for a beautiful display. It blooms from May to November and adds colour during winter with its dainty star-shaped flowers.
This crassula also looks good in pots and grows easily from cuttings – break off a twig or even a leaf and push it into the soil. It’s a fast grower and will tolerate dry conditions. Plant guide • Semi-shade to shade • Indigenous • Moderately frost-hardy • Average water needs • Height 30cm
