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.

Power Chewer Loves This!
Size: Medium, Color: Antler
This is my dog's new favorite chew! She loves that she can hold it in her paws. I think she really loves the taste and texture of it. I don't give her antlers as I have heard too many horror stories about broken teeth. I also don't give her nylon toys as I have also heard a lot of horror stories of broken teeth as well as concerns about them digesting the plastic. This is between antlers and bully sticks, which is perfect for a power chewer. I feel comfortable with her eating the pieces that flake off this toy. She loves chewing and she will default to this toy when she wants to help calm down. I don't notice much of a smell. It does flake, but not enough I will even take a star off. Plus, it's plant based and vacuums up easily once dried. It doesn't capture her attention as much as bully sticks or beef cheek chews, but it's much less expensive over time and doesn't stink up our living room! She will also always pick this over any of her rubber chews. Great product and recommend it for all the power chewers.

Crumbly, odd texture
Size: Large, Color: Duo Pack
Neither of my dogs were very interested in these. They did chew on the antler-shaped versions more so than the infinity-style versions. When they did chew on these, they didn’t hold up well or last long. These have a strange, crumbly texture when chewed. You’ll find bits and pieces of these chews where the dogs have been chewing. Will not be reordering.

This appears to be a good alternative to the hard plastic chew toys.
Size: Large, Color: Duo Pack
My dog is a heavy chewer. I decided to try this brand out after using a different brand for quite awhile. while my dog seems to like it and carries it around (the pretzel shaped one) he doesn't seem to attack it as whole heartedly as his old brand, I'm thinking it might be the shape, we will see when he wears it out and I switch him to the antler shape. What I like most about it is it doesn't tear my hand up like the other brand did after he had been chewing it for awhile. While it is wearing down some it seems to do it in a more mild manner. Since we haven't had it long I would give this 3.5 stars because I don't know if it will last as long and not sure f it is just the shape that has him more mellow with it.

Choose your shape
Size: Medium, Color: Duo Pack
I love the idea of the dogs not eating nylabone plastic so have been searching for "healthier" options that last for heavy chewers. Two German Sherpherds, they are not big fans of the circular shaped toy but love the antler shaped one and even with both chewing on it, has not been destroyed yet and is not cutting their gums open. I am not finding pieces laying in the carpet. Recommend this
