Crassula sandrae

A recently described Crassula (Jacobsen, 2021, in Bradleya) from the Cape Provinces, known from only two wild records. Little is published about it beyond the description, so these conditions are built from the measured climate at its two sites and general care for small Cape crassulas.

Where it grows wild

Microhabitat is not documented in sources we could reach. The measured sites are at roughly 300–580 m in a warm, fairly even-rainfall part of the Cape, where small crassulas typically grow on rocky slopes and in shallow soil pockets.

Measured sites are at about 315 and 576 m.
