Crassula Platyphylla Succulent Plant

Bare root means the plant is shipped without soil or a pot, with its roots exposed. This is a standard, safe way to transport succulents, allowing you to pot them immediately in your preferred soil mix and container upon arrival.

To maintain its signature deep red color and compact growth, this Crassula requires direct sunlight. In lower light conditions, the plant will likely lose its vibrant red hue and may become 'leggy' or stretched out as it reaches for light.

Yes, the Crassula platyphylla is non-toxic to both cats and dogs. It is a safe choice for households with curious pets, though it is always best to keep all houseplants out of reach to prevent accidental ingestion.

This is considered a fast-growing succulent compared to many other varieties. With the right amount of direct sunlight and proper watering, you can expect to see noticeable growth and new foliage relatively quickly.

Because this is a succulent, it requires a well-draining potting mix to prevent root rot. Use a commercial cactus or succulent soil blend, or amend standard potting soil with perlite or pumice to ensure excellent drainage.
