DESCRIPTION

Embodying the serene beauty of a moonlit desert, Crassula lactea 'Taylor's Parches' is a captivating succulent hailing from the rugged landscapes of South Africa. This plant features thick, fleshy leaves that are a soft, creamy white with subtle green undertones, creating a soothing palette that evokes a sense of calm and tranquility. The leaves are dotted with small, pale pink spots, as if they were gently kissed by the morning dew, adding a delicate touch of color to this already charming specimen.

'Taylor's Parches' forms compact, bushy clumps that can reach up to 8 inches in height and spread, making it a perfect choice for those looking to add a touch of elegance to their indoor or outdoor succulent collection. Its dense foliage creates a lush, textured appearance, ideal for adding depth and interest to rock gardens, terrariums, or as a standalone feature in a decorative pot.

One of the most enchanting aspects of this succulent is its bloom. During the late spring to early summer months, 'Taylor's Parches' produces clusters of small, star-shaped flowers that are a soft, ethereal white, almost glowing against the creamy foliage. These blooms not only add an extra layer of beauty to the plant but also attract a variety of pollinators, bringing life and movement to your garden.

Despite its delicate appearance, Crassula lactea 'Taylor's Parches' is a hardy and resilient plant, requiring minimal care to thrive. It prefers well-draining soil, moderate watering, and plenty of sunlight to maintain its vibrant colors and compact form. With its unique beauty and easy-care nature, 'Taylor's Parches' is sure to be a cherished addition to any succulent collection.

PLANT SIZING & APPEARANCE

Plant sizing is based on the diameter of the nursery pot (2", 2.5", 3", 4" etc), not the plant itself. Plants may be slightly larger or smaller than the pot they are grow in depending on availability or time of year. While we do our best to ship plants as similar to those pictured as possible, please keep in mind that all plants are unique from one to the next, and display color, shape, and growth variation based on current environment, time of year, and other contributing factors. Please note that we ship our plants as dry as possible in the fall and winter months to prevent root rot or freezing. They will plump back up after planting!
