Crassula Streyii, a subtropical succulent native to South Africa, showcases broad, glossy green leaves with striking fuchsia to maroon undersides. These leaves boast a glossy sheen and may display tiny dots of hydathodes. Perfect for hanging baskets, particularly during blooming periods, its cascading blooms enhance its appeal. These blooms form clusters of tiny flowers, and once they wither away, plantlets emerge.
