Crassula rupestris ssp. commutata 'Variegated Tom Thumb'

Highlights

'Variegated Tom Thumb' (Crassula rupestris ssp. commutata) (Tölken): A stacked crassula with a milky, creamy variegation. This variegation makes for an excellent pastel addition to any fairy or mini garden. Give it plenty of light to keep its amazing colors from fading.

'Tom Thumb' grows best in bright sunlight and the light helps its leaves show their fine red margins. It thrives in well-draining pots and gritty soil, only occasionally needing a deep watering when the soil is fully dry.

This freely branching shrublet will stay small in a pot, though it can eventually reach over 6.0" long and spill beautifully from arrangements. From spring to mid-summer, 'Tom Thumb' can display neat clusters of tiny white flowers.

Crassula can show tiny white or black dots on their leaves. These are healthy, water-transferring pores called "hydathodes" and not a sign of disease.
