Where to Plant

Crassula rogersii is not cold hardy, so if you live in a zone that gets colder than 30° F (-1.1° C), it's best to plant this succulent in a container that can be brought indoors. It does well in partial sun to partial shade, and makes an excellent houseplant.

How to Propagate Crassula rogersii

Crassula rogersii is easily propagated, and can be propagated by offsets and leaves.

Cuttings

As it grows, Crassula rogersii branches out on woody stems. Each stem can be cut to propagate more plants. Using a sterile, sharp knife or pair of scissors, remove a stem from the main plant, and allow it to callous for several days before placing on well-draining soil. Water whenever the soil has dried out completely.

Leaves

To propagate Crassula rogersii from leaves, twist a leaf from the mother plant. Be sure that none of the leaf remains on the stem, or you will have a smaller chance of success.

Allow the leaf to dry out for several days so that the end callouses over, and then place on well-draining soil. Water whenever the soil is completely dry.
