Crassula marnieriana, commonly known as "Jade Necklace" is a trailing member of the crassula genus which grows to 8" tall and twice as wide. The closely stacked opposite leaves are thick and round, giving the appearance of a beaded necklace.

In warmer climates (above USDA zone 9) Crassula will grow outdoors into a small shrub, but because it is happy in lower light conditions than many of the other succulents, it really shines as a low maintenance indoor plant. When grown indoors, this plant stays small and its woody branches even lend themselves to bonsai type planting and pruning. Once your plant is mature, it can easily be propagated from stem cuttings. A lot of succulents in the Crassula genus may occasionally show very tiny dots that sometimes are white and sometimes black on their leaves.  These are actually pores called ‘Hydathodes” and are used for transferring water.
