Crassula multicava, spreading crassula, is a succulent groundcover adapted to many summer-dry climate gardens. This plant features small, rounded leaves that form dense mats of foliage, which cascade gracefully over walls or spill out of containers. Crassula multicava is known for its delicate white flowers that bloom in clusters above the foliage, adding a touch of whimsy to any garden.

This drought-tolerant plant requires minimal water once established, making it an excellent choice for water-wise landscapes. In addition to its ornamental value, Crassula multicava is often used for erosion control on slopes or as a colorful groundcover in rock gardens.

With its low maintenance requirements and attractive appearance, Crassula multicava is a popular choice for California gardens seeking to enhance their summer-dry landscape.
