How to care for Crassula Ovata 'Gollum'
Sun/Temperature: This succulent thrives in ample sunlight, with the optimal temperature ranging from 60°F to 80°F. Despite its heat tolerance, it should be shielded from direct exposure to intense sunlight to prevent leaf scorching. It is not cold-hardy, with a minimum tolerance temperature of 40°F.
Soil/Watering: Use well-draining soil mixed with sand or gravel to ensure swift water drainage. Water the plant only when the soil is arid to prevent root rot. Typically, watering once a week is sufficient.
Pot: o prevent water from pooling, make sure the pot has proper drainage holes. Since jade trees are upright growing plants and tend to lignify and branch easily, it is recommended to choose a pot with a moderate depth and sufficient capacity, which can provide enough space for the tree to grow and branch.
Pest and Disease: Crassula Ovata 'Gollum' is susceptible to aphids, red spider mites, and black spot disease. Treatment options include spraying with soapy water or using insecticides.
Propagation: Propagation is achieved through stem cuttings. Healthy stem segments should be cut, dried to facilitate wound healing, and inserted into the soil. Spring and summer are optimal seasons for this propagation method.
