Overview of Crassula Muscosa

Common Names: Rattail Crassula, Watch Chain Plant, Lizard’s Tail
Botanical Name: Crassula muscosa (also known as Crassula lycopodioides)
Family: Crassulaceae
Type: Succulent
Mature Size: Up to 8 inches (20 cm) tall, spreading to form a dense mat
Native Area: Namibia and South Africa
Hardiness Zones: 9a to 11 (USDA)Crassula muscosa, commonly referred to as the Rattail Crassula or Watch Chain Plant, is a fascinating succulent known for its unique appearance and resilience. Its dense, bushy growth habit and square-shaped leaves give it a distinctive look that adds texture and interest to any garden or indoor space.

Characteristics

  • Foliage: The plant features long, bright green stems densely packed with small, scale-like leaves that measure about 5 to 8 mm. This arrangement creates a striking visual effect reminiscent of a chain or tail.
  • Flowers: In spring, Crassula muscosa produces tiny star-shaped flowers that are typically white or pale green, adding a delicate touch to the plant.

Care Instructions

Light Requirements

Crassula muscosa thrives in full sun to partial shade. It requires at least 6 hours of sunlight daily for optimal growth. When grown indoors, place it near a south-facing window to ensure it receives adequate light.

Soil and Potting

Use a well-draining soil mix designed for cacti and succulents. A combination of potting soil with perlite or sand works well. Ensure that pots have drainage holes to prevent water accumulation, which can lead to root rot.

Watering

Employ the “soak and dry” method for watering. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. During the growing season (spring and summer), water every 1 to 2 weeks, while in winter, reduce watering frequency as the plant becomes dormant.

Temperature and Humidity

Crassula muscosa prefers moderate temperatures between 50°F to 80°F (10°C to 27°C). It is not frost-hardy, so protect it from temperatures below 20°F (-6.7°C). This succulent prefers low humidity environments typical of its native habitat.

Fertilization

Fertilize during the growing season with a diluted cactus fertilizer every 4 to 8 weeks. Avoid fertilizing during winter when the plant is dormant.

Propagation

Crassula muscosa can be easily propagated through stem cuttings:

  1. Use clean scissors or a sharp knife to cut a healthy stem.
  2. Allow the cut end to callous for several days.
  3. Plant the cutting in well-draining soil and water only when the soil has dried out completely.

Common Issues

  • Pests: Watch for pests such as mealybugs and aphids. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
  • Diseases: Overwatering is the primary concern for this succulent, leading to root rot. Ensure proper watering techniques are followed.

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. How often should I water my Crassula muscosa?
    Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, typically every 1 to 2 weeks during the growing season and less frequently in winter.
  2.  Can I grow Crassula muscosa outdoors?
    Yes, it can be grown outdoors in USDA hardiness zones 9a to 11 but should be protected from frost.
  3. Why are my plant's leaves turning yellow?
    Yellowing leaves may indicate overwatering or insufficient light. Adjust your watering habits and ensure adequate sunlight exposure.
  4. How do I propagate Crassula muscosa?
    Propagation can be done through stem cuttings; allow cuttings to callous before planting in well-draining soil.
  5. Is Crassula muscosa toxic?
    This plant is considered mildly toxic; keep it out of reach of pets and small children who may ingest parts of it.

Weightless, sheer, not greasy formula!
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have tried an embarrassing amount of sunscreens from both high end brands sold at places like Sephora and Nordstrom to dermatologist brands to drugstore brands. This cerave sunscreen is literally perfect. For reference I am in my 30s with fair skin and combo skin. For reference I do not like the other cerave mineral sunscreens. They are extremely white. I do like the cerave ultra light daily moisturizer with spf 30 (I think it’s called) but it’s not waterproof. Here are the reasons why I love it SO much: -waterproof! (Lasts longer during a hot summer day AND I can wear it to the pool/beach with the kids. Truly a do it all sunscreen!) -wears really well under makeup -not greasy or oily -no white cast or film -cosmetically elegant -not drying and provides some moisture -didn’t cause sensitivity, acne or eye burning -i can even put it on my kids without them complaining -feels silky soft and weightless. Truly one of a kind. -cerave is a brand I trust -great mix of zinc and chemical active ingredients for effective protection -great for my combo skin -affordable, decent amount of product -convenient squeeze bottle that doesn’t leak I’m so glad I found this! The #1 reason why I love this is because I trust the protection of cerave and it wears beautifully under makeup! The only thing I can think that would make this better would be if it was a spf 50 but it’s perfect otherwise. I’ve already worn it to the pool and it preforms really well, even on a really hot day being outside for a long time! I live in south Texas. This is literally one of the only sunscreens my husband can stand wearing on his face. So it’s man approved for men who hate wearing sunscreen lol! I didn’t even realize it was labeled for face and body. Ive only been wearing it on my face, neck and chest. I need a bigger bottle for whole body application as we go swimming a lot! I purchased this sunscreen with my own money and this is NOT a paid review. I just really like it! :)

Non-greasy and doesn't damage clothing
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I looked hard for a high quality sunscreen that wouldn't turn my clothes orange and this meets my needs. It is a strong, 30 SPF, but it is not heavy or greasy. It is effective, and it does not discolor my clothing.

A must for summer!
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
My go-to sunscreen. It’s clean, lightweight, and doesn’t leave that white cast like a lot of mineral formulas. I have blonde extensions and this is one of the only ones I’ve found that doesn’t turn them pink, which is huge. Wears really nicely on the skin and layers well—definitely a staple for me.

Overall good basic
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I was looking at mineral sunscreens because they are more natural, but I found the chalky film they leave on the skin to be undesireable. Still, I did not want a fully chemical formula. I was able to find this hybrid that also has hydrating ingredients and ceramides for the skin. It goes on light and provides great coverage. It is a little shiny/greasy however which is why I dropped a star.

Great sunscreen for travel
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve tried several sunblocks and this one is the one. CeraVe never disappoints. I took it with me to Cancun this past weekend and with plenty of sunshine my face and body stayed well protected. No sunburn at all. It also absorbs nicely and doesn’t leave white marks on the skin. The size is perfect for traveling with just a carry-on.
