Crassula perforata - String of buttons
Stacked, sweet, and slightly surreal—Crassula perforata (a.k.a. String of Buttons) is a spiralling succulent with blue-green leaves edged in pink. It’s quirky, sun-loving, and tough enough for any collection.
Plant Care
Light: Loves full sun to bright indirect light. More light = tighter growth and stronger colour. Indoors? South-facing window is ideal.
Watering: Let the soil dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering is its nemesis—err on the dry side, especially in winter.
Temperature: Happy in 16–26°C. Can tolerate cool nights down to about 5°C if kept dry. Not frost-hardy, so bring indoors before the first freeze.
Potting: Our Savvy Succa mix is ideal—gritty, fast-draining, and just right for its shallow roots. Terracotta pots help prevent overwatering.
Hot tips: Easy to propagate from stem cuttings. Great in shallow bowls or trailing from pots. May bloom in spring with tiny starry flowers if conditions are right.
