Crassula cv. Bride's Bouquet

It’s a wonderful hybrid, a species not present in the wild, but created in a nursery starting from Crassula rupestris and Crassula perfoliata v. minor, to obtain a new specimen that combines the characteristics of the two parents to mix them and give life to a whole new appearance. Characterized by a rather slow growth up to a maximum of about 30 cm, it has slender and herbaceous stems, which tend to crawl on the ground or fall back in beautiful cascades if placed in hanging pots. Very similar in some respects to Crassula 'Springtime', above all it differs for the triangular leaves which are smaller and narrower than the other species, extremely smooth and slightly shiny at the tip, with grayish-light green pastel shades. The real strong point of Crassula 'Bride's Bouquet', however, are its flowers: from the end of winter (and sometimes throughout the year) marvelous star-shaped microscopic flowers bloom on the notes of a bright pink with a red-fuchsia center, which are arranged in particular clusters just like a bridal bouquet for a scenographic effect that will certainly not go unnoticed!
