Introducing the very stunning Crassula arborescens, also known as the Silver Dollar Plant; this is a stunning succulent shrub and a member of the Crassula-Jade plant genus. This multi-branched shrub originates from South Africa and gets its name from its unique round, silver-green leaves that resemble silver dollars. 

Crassula arborescens has several other common names, such as Chinese jade, silver dollar jade, silver jade plant, African rubber plant, Crassula cotyledon, Crassula arborea, and cotyledon arborescens. 

The Crassula arborescens is a slow-growing succulent that can reach heights of up to 10 feet in its natural habitat. However, if you are growing indoors, it tends to stay smaller, usually around 3-4 feet tall. Crassula arborescens is popular for growing as a bonzai tree because the tree stays small indoors. This Crassula arborescens flat, plump, oval-shaped leaves are bluish-grey with a reddish tip. In the full sun, the tip coloration gets more vibrant. Additionally, you will find reddish spots on the upper surface of the leaf. 

The flower of the Crassula arborescens silver dollar plant is a sight to behold, with its star-shaped flowers adding a burst of color to the plant. These vibrant blooms can range from shades of white to pink, creating a stunning display that lasts from spring all the way through summer. 

Crassula arborescens can be propagated easily from cuttings. However, the silver jade plant is toxic to humans and pets if consumed, so it should be kept away from children. 

The Crassula Arborescens or Silver Jade Plant looks stunning indoors and is a perfect gift for family and friends!

Watering Needs 

Crassula arborescens are known for their water-retaining properties, thrive in various climates and require less frequent watering, making them ideal for indoor gardening. This is one of the major reasons why they are considered low-maintenance plants. 

When it comes to watering the Crassula arborescens, this drought-tolerant jade plant is relatively low, as it is adapted to arid environments. The Silver jade plant dislikes water as the leaves store water. The soil should be allowed to dry out completely before the next round of watering. The Crassula plant should never be allowed to sit in water else; the roots will rot.  

As a general guideline, you can water your plant every 2-3 weeks during the growing season, which is typically spring and summer. During winter, the watering frequency should be once a month. However, before watering, always check the soil moisture level. 

When watering, make sure to thoroughly soak the soil until excess water drains out of the bottom of the pot. This aids in the removal of accumulated salts or minerals. 

Light Requirement

The Crassula arborescens thrives in bright, indirect sunlight. It prefers a location with plenty of natural light, but it's important to protect it from intense, direct sunlight for prolonged periods, as this can cause sunburn on the leaves. If you're growing the Silver Dollar Jade indoors, place it near a window where it can receive bright, light shade throughout the day. 

If you notice that your Crassula plant is stretching or leaning towards the light source, it may be an indication that it's not receiving enough light. In this case, you can consider providing supplemental artificial light, such as a grow light, to ensure that your Crassula arborescens gets the right amount of light it needs to stay healthy. 

Remember, finding the right balance of light is crucial for the Silver Dollar Jade's growth and overall well-being. So, aim for bright, indirect light and monitor how your plant responds to its lighting conditions. 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs

Crassula arborescens prefers the standard cacti potting soil mixed with sand. It loves to thrive in poor soil. Ideally, you want to use our specialized succulent potting mix that contains 5 natural substrates and organic mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your Crassula succulent to thrive. For those DIY people, as an okay alternative, you can create your own potting mix by combining equal portions of perlite, coarse sand, and good natural potting soil. 

When it comes to fertilizing the Crassula arborescens, it doesn't require frequent feeding. During the growing season, which is typically spring, you can fertilize your silver dollar plant with a balanced 5-10-5 NPK slow-release fertilizer. Apply the fertilizer once a year to provide the necessary nutrients for healthy growth. 

Remember, it's important not to over-fertilize your Crassula arborescens, as this can lead to excessive growth and weak, leggy stems. Always follow the instructions on the fertilizer packaging and adjust the frequency and strength of fertilization based on the specific needs of your Crassula plant. 

Hardiness Zone & More 

The Crassula arborescens is native to South Africa and is typically hardy in USDA hardiness zones 9-11. It prefers warm temperatures and can tolerate a range of humidity levels. In terms of temperature, the Crassula arborescens thrives in average to warm temperatures between 65-75°F. It can tolerate slightly cooler temperatures down to 50°F, but it's best to avoid exposing it to freezing temperatures, as it is not frost-tolerant. 

When it comes to humidity, the Crassula arborescens is adaptable and can tolerate a range of humidity levels. It can thrive in both dry and moderately humid environments. However, it's important to avoid excessively high humidity, as it can increase the risk of fungal diseases. 

Overall, providing the Crassula arborescens with a warm and relatively dry environment will help ensure its optimal growth and health. Remember to protect it from extreme temperatures and avoid exposing it to prolonged periods of high humidity. 

Give this succulent a try if you're looking for an easy Crassula arborescence silver dollar plant to care for and for your succulent gardens!

My Female GSD loves
Size: Medium (2.5"), Style: Fetch Pack 1, Size: Medium (2.5"), Style: Fetch Pack 1
Shasta is my smallest. Six in December (2025) along with her brother. She’s 100 lbs and outside, completely ball driven see last picture. Don’t let the size (2.5”) of these Chuck-It balls deter you. If your larger Breed dog has any orthopedic issues, has already torn their ACL etc, one has arthritis but wants to play. This size is perfect! Shazzy was born with several ortho issues. I don’t throw balls distance but right to her. This size and lighter weight assure even when Shazzy is spazzy w excitement, she’ll catch the ball mid air. The green balls are softer, and glow in the dark. In summer we can play well past dusk and I can see them! Her personality shows in the pictures. Playing ball is part of her. These balls are just perfect for her situation. Somehow they disappear, she loves making baskets, puts them in my tractor bucket, or my gardening bucket..then get put in burn pile, trash etc. I keep replacing them because she’d look day and night if we actually ran out!! 🙏✝️👍🏼👍🏼

Heavy chewer approved.
Style: Ball, Size: Medium (Pack of 1)
My pomsky will destroy a toy in minutes. Ropes, and the "indestructible" nylon type stuffs are no match for my furry shark. This ball has stood up to him like David. He loves the crunch and it is so much more tolerable than a squeaker. These will be a staple in his toy box - Chuckit toys are really the most durable dog toys I have found in three years.

Dogs love them
Style: Ball, Size: Medium (Pack of 2)
Our dogs love these. What’s great is that you can add more plastic (like from water bottles) if the plastic starts to fall out from the center. If you have a chewer, though, these won’t last you long. Our shepherd mix loves these and then starts to pull the rubber apart the more she plays with it. Our other dogs treat it normally, though, and those ones last forever. They also get some decent height when bounced, and they make a unique whistling noise when thrown.
