Another crassula?
« on: July 03, 2016, 10:29:35 AM »
Got this as crassula sp. and cannot find a full name.
The overall appearance is grey(ish) and the flowers are minute.
Suggestions please.

I have now been advised by some very kind gentlemen at the British Cactus and Succulent Society (BCSS) that the plant is a South African succulent called Crassula corallina (syn. dasyphyllum).

I have C. dasyantha 'Major' which looks a bit different and tends to etiolate.
