Crassula muscosa lycopodioides variegata - Variegated Watch Chain

Crassula muscosa lycopodioides variegata: Unique branching stems of tightly overlapping, interlocking leaves. This particular subspecies is variegated with green and creamy white foliage, giving it a frosty appearance. The stems start off erect but then trail over from the weight of the leaves.

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 bright 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.

This variety is easy to re-root from stem cuttings. Look to our Succulent Cuttings Guide for tips on succulent propagation.
