Crassula rudolfii

A rarely recorded Crassula from Namaqualand in the arid winter-rainfall Succulent Karoo, known from only eight wild GBIF records. No climate could be measured, so these conditions are inferred from the region and from general practice for winter-growing Namaqualand Crassula.

Where it grows wild

The records cluster in Namaqualand, both on the coastal plain and in the uplands between about 17°E and 18°E. This is Succulent Karoo with dwarf succulent shrubland on quartz gravel, granite outcrops and sandy flats. The species' own microhabitat is not documented here.

No record carries an elevation. Namaqualand ranges from the coastal plain up to about 1,000 m on the escarpment.
