Crassula 'Baby's Necklace Variegata'

Highlights

Crassula 'Baby's Necklace Variegata' (Kimnach): A charming, prolific grower featuring flat, button-like leaves that encase the stems like beads on a string. Its minty-green foliage is beautifully accented with creamy-white to yellowish variegation and contrasting pink-to-red edges that deepen in bright sunlight. This variety works wonderfully as a compact ground cover in frost-free areas or cascading gracefully from a hanging basket. 'Baby's Necklace' is a hybrid of C. rupestris ssp. marnieriana × C. perforata ssp. kougaensis.

Soft succulents will not survive a hard frost, but if there is a risk of freezing temperatures they can be brought indoors to grow on a sunny window sill or under a grow light. They need ample sunlight, great drainage, and infrequent water to prevent rot. Pick containers with drainage holes and use well-draining cactus and succulent soil with 50% to 70% mineral grit such as coarse sand, pumice, or perlite. Water deeply enough for water to run out the drainage hole, then wait for the soil to fully dry before watering again.
