Crassula ovata 'Hobbit Jade'
These remind me of the cartoon character, 'Shriek's Ears'.
Succulent houseplants are popular plants for window sills, brighten desks and other indoor spaces where you can show them off. Great for weddings! Protect from frost.
Description:
Easy to grow in a container, best in full sun but will tolerate part sun. A small evergreen, sparingly branched, shrubby succulent, with interesting tubular (Skinny Fingers), leaves that have a reddish tint. The flowers are small, star-like, white or pinkish-white in color. It needs well-drained soil. During the winter months, water only enough to keep the leaves from shriveling.
Succulents are FAR more likely to survive under-watering than over-watering. The thick fleshy leaves will appear wilted and a bit “under-full” when they need water.
Perfect as a houseplant.
