Crassula coccinea – deep pink  Crassula 🌿

Crassula coccinea is a vibrant, upright-growing succulent known for its dense clusters of scarlet-red star-shaped flowers and fleshy, green triangular leaves. Native to South Africa, it puts on a fiery floral show in summer and adds colour and structure to sunny windowsills or rock gardens.

Key Features:

✔ Produces bright pink flowers in summer that attract pollinators
✔ Compact, upright habit with neatly stacked foliage
✔ Great for containers, succulent displays, or Mediterranean-style gardens
✔ Drought-tolerant and easy to maintain
✔ A colourful contrast to softer-toned succulents

Care Instructions:

• Light: Thrives in full sun to bright, indirect light – more sun encourages better flowering

• Watering: Let soil completely dry between waterings – avoid overwatering

• Soil: Requires a well-draining cactus or succulent mix

• Feeding: Feed sparingly in spring/summer with a low-nitrogen succulent fertiliser

• Temperature: Prefers warmth – keep above 10°C; protect from frost

• Pruning: Trim spent flowers to maintain tidy growth

🌿 Tip: Place in a sunny spot to maximise bloom potential, and don’t crowd it – this plant loves airflow.
