From the Jade family, the unusual foliage on Crassula Hobbit has inspired a lot of names from the world of science fiction, such as Trumpet Jade, ET's Fingers and Hobbit's Pipe Jade. Despite their other worldly appearance and names, these are really cute plants and very easy to look after making them a great gift for the less green fingered. Just make sure their soil isn't too wet and they will do very well somewhere with bright, but indirect light.

From the Jade family, these unusual and compact succulents make great house and office plants.

Crassula are used to hot dry conditions and thrive indoors in a warm room. A sunny windowsill is ideal but your plant will tolerate a range of conditions as long as it is protected from temperatures under 10˚C.

Your new Crassula will need watering regularly through the warmer months, wait for the top of the soil to be bone dry then water until the excess drains freely from the bottom of the pot. However, through winter you will want the soil to dry out more between watering, giving the plant enough water to wet through to the bottom of the soil. Always allow excess water to drain away, these plants will not do well if left to sit in water.

Crassula are quite slow growers and their size can easily be contained by a small pot, they also thrive when the roots become pot bound. This way wait to repot when the pot is full of roots and only go up one pot size at a time. To encourage more growth, repot your plant once a year in the Spring and give a general-purpose feed once a month through the growing season.

Problem solving:

Crassula are pretty resistant to neglect. However, if your plant does start looking sorry for itself, pull off any dead or soft leaves and move to a sunnier position. Dark brown leaves or leaf edges can be a sign of under watering so try watering more regularly. On the flip side, mould at the base or the bottom of the leaves is a sign of over watering or too damp a position, so try a sunnier, airier room and let it dry out for a good week or two before watering.
