Crassula 'Campfire' is a heavily branching succulent that more than lives up to its name – the elongated, fleshy leaves range in color from a light green to a fiery red, giving the appearance of flames! With a mat-forming growth pattern, ‘Campfire’ can readily fill a pot or a corner of the rock garden with its intense coloration, reaching up to 6 inches tall and 3 feet wide.
Easy to care for, as are many Crassula, ‘Campfire’ requires bright light to maintain its intense hues – in dimmer environments, it will revert to a more green tone. Overwatering is to be avoided, as it predisposes the plant to rot, so be sure to follow a consistent but infrequent watering routine, such as the ‘soak and dry’ method. Ample airflow is also a must for this variety, which can be prone to mealy bugs in damp conditions.
During the summer months, a contented ‘Campfire’ will send up clusters of white flowers, providing a stark contrast to its richly hued leaves. During the winter months, conversely, take care to protect this variety from frost, as it is not cold hardy below Zone 9.
