Description:
Crassula orbicularis var. rosularis is a cute, easy-to-grow, quite "leafy", semi-succulent with lance-shaped leaves that are flushed deep pink when they emerge and age to green on top with deep pink reverses.

Water well when soil is dry but be cautious in winter as cold, wet soil will cause root rot.
