Crassula Calico Kitten Plant Description
The green, lemony cream and pink leaves of 'Calico Kitten' blush a beautiful rose-lilac in drought or cold. Other variations of this variegated plant can come in greens and purples. This multicolored creeper is a go-to accent for succulent dish gardens, serving as an eye-catching contrast to rose-shaped succulents such like echeverias as well as upright growers. Excellent as a hanging basket or for spilling over the sides of a rock wall or along a dry creek bed. Tuck into the nooks and crannies of a waterwise garden where frost is not a concern.

Crassula Calico Kitten Water & Light Recommendations
Watering Needs Indoors: Instead of giving your succulents gradual sips of water throughout the week, give them a good soaking, to the point where water runs out the drainage holes at the bottom of the pot. Be sure to empty the water that runs into the saucer, succulents do not like to sit in water. Then let the soil dry out completely before watering again.
Watering Needs Outdoors: In the Summer water your succulents every two weeks, by soaking them and letting them dry before watering again. In the Winter water your succulents once a month.
