About Crassula spathulata Thunb.

Crassula spathulata Thunb. produces small, ovate-rounded, spathula-shaped leaves that have distinct leaf stalks. This distinguishes it from Crassula pellucida, which has sessile leaves. The base of each leaf is either truncate, rounded, or heart-shaped, and small rounded bumps run along the leaf edges. The thin, prostrate stems of this species are sometimes square in cross-section. Tiny star-shaped flowers that are pink-white in color grow on branched flower stems, and bloom in autumn.
