Crassula serpentaria

GBIF's backbone treats this name as Crassula ×serpentaria Schönland, a hybrid, and it has no usable wild records. The conditions below come from the single climate site the pipeline used, an arid interior Northern Cape location at about 1,040 m, together with general Crassula practice.
