Crassula Marginalis plants in all their colors and variations, generally are small, bunchy and traily succulents with pinky, fleshy stems holding pairs of triangley-shaped leaves threaded closely together. Bunchy in a pot, each fleshy stem jostles each other and wants to lean and trail up to 12" in a hanging pot if you want. The basic color of the leaves is a sage to light green with many different added colors in the different varieties. This yellow one is one of the prettiest versions with a rich, creamy lemon yellow edging each leaf, with a brilliant scarlet red outline edging that, more and more as you give it the sun it craves. The nickname "Calico Kitten Crassula" is for the bright green/yellow/reds all mixed together. This Marginalis is probably the most colorful of all, truly beautiful. Flowers are sprays of fragrant, tiny, white stars in the springtime.
