About Crassula Rubricaulis Candy Cane
Crassula Rubricaulis Candy Cane, of the Crassulaceae family, originates in mainly South Africa, also Madagascar and has spread to home cultivation thanks to its beauty and resilience. It is characterized by opposite fleshy leaves in columns or rosettes, an evolutionary adaptation that makes it a unique piece in the world of succulents.
Your Crassula Rubricaulis Candy Cane has been grown at Succulentae, a specialized nursery in Almería, under real Mediterranean arid conditions — more resilient and better adapted than artificial greenhouse plants. The result: more compact, better colored and more resilient plants than those grown in artificial greenhouses.
