Crassula pruinosa

Crassula pruinosa is a small, branching succulent shrublet with fleshy, oval leaves covered in a fine, white, powdery coating (pruina). The leaves are gray-green beneath the powder. It produces small, white, star-shaped flowers in clusters.

Botanical Profile

Family:Crassulaceae (krass-yoo-LAY-see-ee)
Genus:Crassula (KRASS-oo-la)
Species:pruinosa (proo-in-NO-suh)

Care Guide

Bright light and well-draining soil. Water sparingly; the powdery coating can be damaged by water. Avoid overhead watering. The pruina protects the leaves from intense sun. A charming, textural addition to a Crassula collection.
