Title: Crassula
Post by: ChrisB on November 06, 2007, 06:49:09 PM

Hi everyone,

I've just acquired this crassula and am hoping someone can help me give it a name.  I've seen it exhibited at shows before now, so have high hopes someone will know its name.  Thanks

Looks like Crassula socialis to me. Certainly hardy to -3 or -4 C as long as you keep it pretty dry in winter.  I lost one at about  -8C but that may in part have been due to the damper atmosphere and plunge it was subjected to.

cheers

Martin

Thanks Martin, the name rings a bell too.
