Crassula ‘Buddha’s Temple’ – Succulent Temple Plant. This rare hybrid succulent forms striking, architectural columns of tightly stacked leaves, resembling miniature temples. In Cape Town’s climate, it flowers in late spring to summer, producing clusters of vivid pink blooms that contrast beautifully with its grey-green foliage. Ideal for collectors, rockeries, or ornamental pots, it thrives in sunny spots but can adapt to semi-shade. A must-have for anyone who loves unusual, sculptural plants.
Plant in well-draining succulent soil and place in a sunny or semi-shaded position. Water moderately during the growing season, allowing soil to dry between waterings, and reduce watering in winter. Protect from frost and avoid overwatering to prevent root rot. Feed lightly with a succulent fertilizer in spring for best growth and flowering
Crassula ‘Buddha’s Temple’ is a man-made hybrid, created by crossing Crassula pyramidalis and Crassula perfoliata var. falcata. Its perfectly stacked leaves were designed to mimic the layered roofs of Asian temples ,hence its name.
