How to care for crasula
It belongs in the succulent plants (leaves are fleshy, store water). It can reach a height of 3m, although such examples are less common. Crasula blooms in winter, until spring, with tiny white flowers. The soil in which it should be planted is the same as for cacti and other succulents (40% sand, 20% of forest humus, 20% of potting soil, and the rest with small pebbles, perlite, broken brick).
Like most succulents, it requires winter hibernation (October-April) when the plant should be watered with as little water possible, 1-2 times during the whole winter. The temperature during this period should not fall below 0, because the frost will get to the plant quickly. The ideal temperature is around 10°C. If you can not provide these conditions to the plant, then you can keep it somewhere worm for the winter. In that case you should water more often. It does not require a big pot, but if you place it in a larger pot, with some additional nutrition the crasula will progress faster.
There are two modes of propagation. The first is to cut off a branch (5-15cm), let the cut dry for 2-3 days and then plant it in a mixture of soil and sand (50/50) or just sand. Water every 3-4 days. It is essential that the soil is not always moist because the cuttings will rot. They should be in the shade. Cuttings will take root in less than a month, when they can be planted separately in a better soil.
Another way is propagating from the leaf. Simply pull off the leaf and lay it on the ground. For less than a month, the leaf will develop roots in the area where it was attached to the branch. When you pull off the leaf, make sure that the leaf is whole, that is broken off just at the base of the stalk.
The first method has proven to be much more successful, it is therefore recommended. According to the belief (feng shui), the plant should be kept on the right side of the front door.
