Crassula 'Baby's Necklace' (Kimnach): A prolific grower with flat, button-like leaves that encase the stems like beads on a string. Its minty green foliage has contrasting pink to red edges that intensify in direct sun. This variety can grow as a ground cover in frost-free areas, but it also looks fantastic trailing from a hanging basket. 'Baby's Necklace' is a hybrid of C. rupestris ssp. marnieriana x C. perforata ssp. kougaensis.
Soft succulents will not survive a hard frost, but if there is a risk of freezing temperatures they can be brought indoors to grow on a sunny window sill or under a grow light. They need ample sunlight, great drainage, and infrequent water to prevent rot. Pick containers with drainage holes and use well-draining cactus and succulent soil with 50% to 70% mineral grit such as coarse sand, pumice, or perlite. Water deeply enough for water to run out the drainage hole, then wait for the soil to fully dry before watering again.
Crassula is also commonly known as ‘Baby’s Necklace’. As the plant grows you will notice how small but thick green the leaves become leaves with red around the edges, as best shown in the image of the plant. This is a beautiful plant that goes well in most gardens. As the plant matures it is known to reach around 30 cm (12?) and around 30 cm (12?) in diameter. When the plant flowers in early Spring to Early Summer expect white flowers.
