Crassula Undulatifolia, also called Ruffle Jade, is a succulent in the Crassulaceae family native to the rocky, arid regions of South Africa. It arrives as a healthy 4" starter plant and brings form to windowsills, shelves, and tabletop displays.
The plant's undulating, rippled leaves stack upright along firm stems. The foliage is forest green with softly ruffled margins that catch light and give it the signature ripple jade appearance. Its compact, upright growth form makes it suitable for confined spaces where structure and personality matter.
Small star-shaped flowers in pale white to cream tones appear in late winter or early spring when the plant experiences a cool nighttime temperature drop. Flowering is infrequent indoors but creates a contrast against the deep green foliage when it occurs.
Move it outside in summer or onto a sheltered patio during warm months. It tolerates dry heated air indoors but should stay away from direct AC or heater vents. The sap causes skin and paw irritation in cats and dogs, so place it on a high shelf away from pets and small children. You can leave it up to ten days without water.
