I grew this one from one cutting that had just a tiny bit of stem and two leaves. It took about 2 years to be this size and get it to bloom twice a year. I actually never saw it blooming before..
Crassula Perforata
This little baby has a hard time with me. It happens that I forget to water it for few weeks and the beautiful fatty leaves start to look like raisins. It has amazing adaptation to harsh (me) conditions! All the water stored in those fatty leaves is used in those drought times (me again) and refilled as soon as I water it. It takes only few days to get back to the normal, plump look.
Who would have thought that some plants can be so tough!
The flowers are super small, maybe 3mm across. But when all the stems start to bloom in the same time it looks quite nice.
Otherwise the are nothing special to me.
See how cute the leaves are? Very pleasant to the touch, thick and when exposed to more sun they get even darker purple!
Naturally the the longer stems pf the plant would bend and lay down on the grown. Each segment where the leaves grow from is able to grow roots, so it would just root down and start growing new offshoots.
I kind of like staked up like a little bush.
The two smaller plants I have outside are left alone and they do what they want. Slowly they start to hand down from the pot.
