Regular mixes for cacti and succulents can be used or a mixture of regular potting soil, bird sand and pumice (2:1:1).

Crassula falcata is commonly known as Propeller Plant or Airplaine Plant.

Watering

Allow the soil dry or nearly dry between the waterings. Water sparingly if placed cool to temperate during winter.

If the Propeller Plant ist placed outside please make sure that rain water can run out of the pot’s hole. Wet legs can cause root rot.

Feeding

Every 4th to 8th week if Crassula falcata is in active growth. Feed with cacti liquid fertilizer or a standard liquid fertilizer at half strength. A new bought or recently repotted Propeller Plant don’t need to be fed for the first year.
