Crassula pubescens ssp. radicans - Small Red Carpet Stonecrop

Small Red Carpet: A Crassula with Bright Seasonal Color

Small leaves on branching stems make Crassula pubescens ssp. radicans a fine-textured accent. Its green foliage can turn warm red in brighter conditions, giving this little succulent its Red Carpet charm.

• 🍒 Red-blushing foliage adds warm color when conditions suit
• 🌿 Small fleshy leaves grow along slender branching stems
• 🌱 Low spreading growth can gradually fill a small space
• 🪴 Fine texture contrasts beautifully with larger rosettes

Try it along the edge of a bright, well-drained planter, with room for the little stems to spread.

Care Tips

Light: Give bright light with gentle direct sun. Acclimate gradually and protect from scorching afternoon heat.

Water: Let the mix dry between waterings, then water thoroughly and drain fully. Water less when growth slows.

Soil: Use a gritty, fast-draining succulent mix.

Potting: Choose a pot with drainage holes and repot when the roots need more room.

Humidity: Provide good airflow and avoid persistently damp foliage.

Temperature: Protect from frost and cold, wet conditions.

Care Instructions

Please visit our Succulent Care info page for more details.

To ensure the health of succulents, it is important to plant them in porous, well-draining soil. Succulents require little watering, but don't like to sit in wet soil. To create an adequate cactus mix, simply add pumice, perlite, or grit to cactus soil to provide the proper drainage.

Allow the soil to dry to the level recommended in the Care Tips above before watering again. Always drain excess water.

Weather Conditions

• When ordering, be mindful that living succulents can be damaged by the cold weather.
• If you live in an area that is below 40°F, please add a shipping warmer to your order or consider purchasing plant until the weather is more suitable.
• Shipping Warmer: 72+ Hours Heat Packs available for $2.00 each
