Crassula 'Moonglow'

About Crassula ‘Moonglow’

Crassula ‘Moonglow’ is an attractive succulent with pairs of fleshy, closely-packed leaves on upright posts. Leaves are green to dark grey with short hairs when it becomes fully ripe. It can bear apricot-colored flowers from winter through spring.

How to care for Crassula ‘Moonglow’

Sun/Location: Like most Crassula succulents, Crassula 'Moonglow' is not a hardy succulent; they love full sun during the growing season, which means you can grow them outdoors in Spring and Fall. Shade is essential for them in summer to avoid sunburn. Click here to learn how to care for succulents in summer.

Soil/Pot: Succulent plants prefer loose, low fertilizer succulent soil to thrive. Preferably repot them in growing seasons, fill a pot with a drainage hole with soil and place the plant into the new pot, then cover the roots with more soil. Top-dressing rocks can make them prettier and cleaner.

Watering: Crassula 'Moonglow' is easily infected with fungal diseases and mealybugs. Placing them in a spot with excellent air circulation is helpful. Like other succulents, they don't like sitting in water for long. It is recommended to check the potting soil and ensure it is completely dry before watering. Bottom watering is another efficient way to avoid overwatered succulents. Click here to learn how to save overwatered succulents.

We pack all shipments by hand. 

We have many years of experience shipping live succulents and cactus plants. We pay close attention to packing and have developed an expert shipping method.

It is important to us that you are able to Keep going and Keep growing without any stress about the quality of the product or packaging.

Shipping Speed

In general, it takes 3 to 10 days for plants to arrive after you place your order. All orders will be shipped out 48 hours after you place them. We ship the orders on work days(from Monday to Saturday) and all year round. In normal conditions, it will take 3-10 days for you to receive the package. Estimated shipping times are offered as needed.

EXTREME WEATHER NOTICE: The Next Gardener reserves the right to hold shipments during storms or periods of extreme heat or cold. This is to ensure your plant does not suffer while it is in transit.

Winter shipping

We insist on shipping succulents to our customers all year round. However due to the extreme winter weather, although we pack succulents with as much protective material as possible, plants are still at increased risk of frost on their way to colder areas. We highly recommend adding one 72-hour heat pack to your order or you can request a hold on the package until it warms up.

Please note that The Next Gardener is not responsible for packages that suffer cold damage without a heat pack. We cannot control the weather. Order at your own risk.

Hawaii, Alaska, and Other US Territories

Fortunately, shipping is available to Alaska, Guam, and other U.S. Territories. However, due to numerous factors beyond our control, including customs checks and shipping delays, free shipping to Hawaii and Puerto Rico is not an option. And we can not provide the 14-day quality guarantee for orders going to Hawaii and Puerto Rico. The buyer will assume all risk of damage when a delivery is delayed. We appreciate your understanding.

Sorry. No International Shipping for now!!!
