The Crassula ovata 'Gollum' is a striking and unusual succulent with finger-like, tubular leaves that give it a truly unique appearance. This slow-growing plant, also known as Gollum Jade, is native to South Africa and a member of the jade plant family. Its thick, fleshy leaves store water, making it extremely drought-tolerant and easy to care for. With its compact, bonsai-like growth habit, the Gollum Jade is perfect for adding a whimsical, sculptural touch to any indoor garden or succulent collection.
Crassula ovata is mildly toxic to pets if ingested, so it's best to keep it out of reach from cats and dogs.
