Crassula 'Moonglow' – Live Succulent Plant

A Unique Architectural Succulent with Stacked Gray-Green Leaves

Crassula 'Moonglow' is a beautiful hybrid succulent in the Crassulaceae family, created from Crassula deceptor and Crassula perfoliata var. minor (formerly Crassula falcata). This slow-growing variety is prized for its distinctive tower-like growth habit, featuring tightly stacked gray-green leaves arranged in neat geometric layers.

Covered with a fine, velvety coating and accented by subtle green speckles, Moonglow offers year-round texture and visual interest. Under proper growing conditions, it produces clusters of creamy white, five-petaled flowers that add even more charm to this striking succulent.

Care Guide

Light:
Thrives in bright light and full sun during spring and fall. Provide afternoon shade during hot summer months. In colder climates, move indoors before temperatures drop below 41°F (5°C).

Water:
Allow the soil to dry completely between waterings. Bottom watering is recommended to encourage healthy root development and prevent excess moisture around the leaves.

Soil:
Plant in a fast-draining cactus or succulent mix amended with pumice, perlite, or coarse grit for excellent drainage.

Potting:
Ceramic pots with drainage holes are recommended for improved airflow and moisture regulation.

Temperature:
Prefers temperatures between 50°F and 77°F (10°C–25°C). Protect from prolonged temperatures below 41°F (5°C) and provide shade and airflow during periods above 86°F (30°C).

Humidity:
Performs best in low-humidity environments with good air circulation.

Shipping Information

• 2" plants are shipped with the nursery pot and soil.
• 4" and larger plants are shipped bare root (without pot or soil) to promote healthier shipping and reduce the risk of damage.
• Every plant is unique, so slight variations in size, shape, and color are natural.

Planting Tips

Use a porous, well-draining succulent soil mix to help prevent root rot. Allow drought periods between waterings, as Crassula varieties thrive when the soil is allowed to dry before receiving additional moisture.

With its sculptural form and distinctive foliage, Crassula 'Moonglow' makes an outstanding addition to succulent collections, indoor plant displays, rock gardens, and decorative containers.
