Crassula ovata ‘Sunset’
Crassula ‘Sunset’ is a colourful succulent with thick, glossy leaves displaying a beautiful blend of green, golden yellow and warm red tones. The vibrant colouring becomes particularly pronounced in bright light, while its sturdy branching stems gradually develop into an attractive miniature tree-like shape as the plant matures.
Perfect for a sunny windowsill, conservatory or bright living space, ‘Sunset’ is an easy-care plant that brings year-round colour and structure indoors. Its compact, architectural habit also makes it ideal for desks, shelves and mixed succulent displays, with mature plants occasionally producing clusters of small, star-shaped flowers.
- Other names: Sunset Jade Plant, Golden Jade Plant
- Useful to know: Toxic if ingested - not safe for pets
- Eventual height: 60-100cm
- Origins: Cultivated variety; parent species native to South Africa and Mozambique
Crassula Care Sheet
Light: Give plenty of bright light with some direct sunlight. Strong light encourages the best golden yellow and red colouring, although protect from sudden exposure to intense summer sun.
Water: Allow the compost to dry thoroughly between waterings, then water well and allow all excess moisture to drain away. Reduce watering considerably during winter.
Soil/Nutrition: Use a free-draining cactus and succulent compost. Feed lightly during spring and summer with a suitable cactus and succulent feed.
Humidity: Normal household humidity is ideal. Avoid very humid conditions and ensure good airflow around the plant.
Pruning and propagation: Prune longer branches to maintain a compact, bushy shape. Propagate easily from stem or leaf cuttings, allowing cut surfaces to dry before planting.
Experience level: Beginner.
