Spring’s arrival has been--Will it? Won’t it?--lately. Hasn’t it? Well, I don’t know about you, but I sure can use a bit o’ green. Instead of waiting for it, why not welcome a String of Buttons (Crassula perforata variegata) into your indoor garden? These little magical delights are, well, cute as a button! They are little wedges of green pink tipped leaves suspended by an upright stem. They like to grow in clusters giving the appearance of bushes; which would be perfect for a village scene terrarium (as pictured below). This little piece of happy place doesn’t require much in life, water about once a week-two weeks depending on weather, adapts to small spaces as it grows upwards, and will gift you green when you give it a kiss of gold from the sun. you won’t need much luck to keep it maintained as it is pretty self sufficient. As always, available for purchase at our shop.
