Crassula fascicularis cream (100 seeds)

Family: Crassulaceae

Common names: Fragrant Crassula

It is an erect, succulent shrublet, 150-400 mm high, branching from a slightly woody base. It has sessile (stalkless), narrow lance-shaped, upward-pointing, scarcely fleshy leaves, 20-40 mm long and 2-3 mm broad, on stems that are frequently reddish. They usually have tiny curved hairs along the margins, which give the leaves a silvery edge.

Sowing instructions: Sow the seed in a seed box. DO NOT cover the seeds. Simply sow the seeds in a coarse sand topping, with a well-drained substrate underneath. Water with a fine mister or a fogger once a week during winter and once a month in summer. The seeds will germinate readily during the cooler period of the year.
