Crassula ovata Gollum is a fun and fashionable variety of Crassula. It is smaller and more compact than the standard variety. Its leaves are a fascinating slender, tubular shape, ending in red tips that look like suction cups.
The common names for this succulent are a great blend of fantasy sci-fi: Gollum Jade, Trumpet Jade, ET’s Fingers and Hobbit’s Pipe Jade. Once established as a mature plant, the stems become thick and form intricate shapes. They are very easy to care for.
Crassula ovata Gollum – Gollum Jade Plant Care & Info Guide
Horty Hints
Fast and furious! Ensure your Crassula ovata Gollum has fast-draining soil as it will grow increasingly unhappy if left sitting in excess water.
Sitting pretty! Pop your Crassula ovata Gollum on a windowsill or in a similarly brightly lit location so it can reap the full benefits of all that sunshine!
Pruned? If the leaves of your Crassula are beginning to thin, droop or wrinkle, it may be underwatered. However, make sure to allow enough time for the soil to dry out between waterings.
Light
Crassula ovata Gollum prefers bright, indirect sunlight, though a few hours of direct sunlight a day would not go amiss. It will tolerate some degree of shade but may appear less full and vibrant.
Watering
Jade Plants like to be well-watered. Allow the soil to dry out before watering again to avoid overwatering. Crassula do not like having their roots sitting in water.
Temperature
This plant will do well in average household temperatures: between 15-24°C. Make sure your Gollum does not drop below 10°C.
Humidity
Crassula ovata prefer normal home humidity. They will tolerate higher levels of humidity and don’t mind being misted but this is not required.
Feed
A weak solution of liquid fertiliser once a month or so.
Height & Growth Rate
Once established, ovata Gollum is slow-growing. Typically it will reach a height of around 50cm to 80cm, but in the right conditions, it can grow to over 1.2 metres.
Toxicity
This Jade Plant is known to be poisonous to pets, therefore keep away from animals.
Origin
While this plant is a nursery-produced hybrid, the species: Crassula ovata, are native to South Africa.
