Crassula Temple de Bouddha

Crassula ‘Buddha’s Temple’ is a rare and striking succulent, created by hybridizing Crassula pyramidalis and Crassula perfoliata var. minor. It is valued for its unique, columnar shape, where thick, gray-green leaves are perfectly stacked one over the other, reminiscent of the roofs of Asian temples.

🌿 Botanical features:

• Family: Crassulaceae

• Origin: hybrid created in South Africa

• Leaves: fleshy, triangular, gray-green, covered with a fine protective dust layer

• Form: compact, upright, architectural; stems can reach 10–15 cm in height

• Flowers: small, white or pale pink, grouped in clusters at the top of the stems, during spring–summer

☀️ Growing conditions:

• Light: direct sun or strong light; color and compact shape are best maintained in bright light

• Soil: very well drained (substrate for cacti and succulents, with added sand or perlite)

• Watering: infrequent – only when the soil is completely dry; avoid water stagnation

• Temperature: 18–28°C; protect from cold (minimum 10°C)

💚 Benefits and uses:

• Collector’s succulent, ideal for minimalist arrangements or zen decorations

• Fits excellently in ceramic pots, mini gardens, or succulent collections

• Its symmetrical shape makes it the main attraction of any plant composition

⚠️ Note: The plant is sensitive to excess water and very cold air. Leaves may show small imperfections due to transport or handling, without affecting the plant’s viability. The plant is sold without flowers.
