Very attractive, Crassula arborescens (Silver Jade Plant) is a small, heavily branched, evergreen shrub boasting fleshy, disc-shaped, silver-gray leaves adorned with reddish spots and often with reddish edges. The tip's coloration is more intense in full sun. Clusters of small starry white flowers, aging to pink, sometimes bloom in spring or summer, but they are quite rare in cultivation. Silver Jade Plant makes a very pretty bushy shrub. As it ages, the stout gray trunk and sturdy limbs become massive and thick and take on the appearance of a miniature tree. A great choice for rock gardens or containers.
