Crassula rogersii

Crassula rogersii (Schönland): Thick, green, oval foliage covered with a soft velvet. Moderate stress from bright sun or drought can bring out warm pink flushing on the leaf tips. Fragrant clusters of white, star-shaped blooms tend to appear in winter. This species makes an excellent houseplant.

Soft succulents will not survive a hard frost, but if there is a risk of freezing temperatures they can be brought indoors to grow on a sunny window sill or under a grow light. They need ample sunlight, great drainage, and infrequent water to prevent rot. Pick containers with drainage holes and use with 50% to 70% mineral grit such as coarse sand, pumice, or perlite. Water deeply enough for water to run out the drainage hole, then wait for the soil to fully dry before watering again.
