Crassula tetragona is a drought-tolerant plant that looks a bit like a pine branch with needles sticking out of the side or with a green bottle brush. They are usually used in bonsai pots and look like pine trees. On the ground, they grow to 4 feet tall. They will branch at the tip and can be used as an informal hedge at the low end. Their leaves look like fat pine needles and are about an inch long. Their color can range from green to dark blue-green. They can make the sun fully shine in light shades, like heating, and are easy to root and grow.

Like other sedum trees, they grow well in dry gardens along with other succulents and cacti. As indoor plants, give them up to 6 hours of sunlight every day. They should also perform well under bright indirect light. These perennials are drought-tolerant and only need to be watered once a month. In summer, they spray wide and flat flowers, reminding me of Queen Anne’s lace. Flowers are produced on the tips of branches. The color of the flowers can vary from white to yellow.

However, if they are exposed to cold temperatures for a long time, all the water stored in their leaves and branches will freeze.

Sedum is easy to propagate through cuttings, so you can own a lot of plants without spending a lot of money. These plants branch at the top and may become a little heavy. Trimming the top can create more succulent plants for your landscape. If you plant the cut face straight, it will continue to grow in this way. If the cut branches are placed on the side, the cut branches will grow roots along the branches and form several plants. In my yard, that dog sometimes knocks off some branches here and there. These branches took root with my help, thank you. So, I slowly grew into a group of bigger Crassula in the yard, no time or energy, cool deals.

In the arid southwest region, dry farming of drought-tolerant cacti and succulents has become popular. My sedum grows in alkaline alkaline clay filled with sunlight and shadows. They pricked around my cactus, and the fluffy branches contrasted sharply with the flat green cactus mat. They water once a month (if I remember). They are beautiful, carefree, and always look green when everything else is fried. If you think your thumb is brown, this is the plant for you!
