Plant Profile: Crassula arborescens ssp. undulatifolia

Ripple Jade, a member of the stonecrop family, is a succulent known for its uniquely ripply blue-green foliage. In North Carolina, it is typically cultivated as an indoor plant, reaching heights of up to 4 feet, although it seldom flowers when grown in captivity.

To ensure its health, provide ample bright light and well-draining soil, and be sure to bring it indoors before the frost sets in. Water the plant only after the soil has completely dried out to avoid the risk of root rot. For optimal growth, use a potting mix designed for succulents and cacti, and choose a clay pot equipped with multiple drainage holes.

Propagation is straightforward; simply take stem cuttings and allow them to dry for 24 to 48 hours before planting.
