Crassula Ovata Gollum - Cutting

Crassula ovata ‘Gollum’ – A Whimsical Wonder for Your Succulent Collection

Step into the world of quirky charm with Crassula ovata ‘Gollum’, affectionately known as Gollum Jade or Hobbit’s Pipe Jade. This playful twist on the classic Jade Plant features tubular, finger-like leaves that curl and trumpet in fascinating ways—adding an imaginative, almost fantastical feel to any space.

What Makes It Special

Tubular, Curled Leaves:
The standout feature of 'Gollum' is its sculptural foliage—elongated, glossy green leaves shaped like tiny pipes or fingers, giving it an unusual, eye-catching silhouette.

Glossy Green Color:
Its vibrant green leaves bring a lively pop of color and look especially radiant when placed in bright light.

Compact, Shrubby Growth:
Growing up to 3 feet tall, this branching succulent forms a tidy, bush-like shape that works beautifully in pots or as part of a larger succulent arrangement.

Seasonal Blooms:
In cooler months, ‘Gollum’ may surprise you with clusters of starry pinkish-white flowers, adding a soft, delicate contrast to its bold structure.

Why You’ll Love It

• Uniquely Playful Form: Its out-of-this-world leaf shape makes it a favorite among collectors and a fun introduction to succulents for beginners.
• Versatile Display: Perfect for sunny windowsills, patio containers, rock gardens, or whimsical indoor arrangements.
• Easy to Grow: Drought-tolerant and low-maintenance, it’s a great choice for both novice and experienced plant lovers.

Care Instructions

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light to full sun. More sunlight encourages compact growth and deeper color.
• Water: Water thoroughly but infrequently, allowing soil to dry out completely between waterings. Reduce watering in winter.
• Soil: Use a fast-draining cactus or succulent mix to prevent root rot and promote healthy roots.
• Temperature: Thrives in warm environments but protect from frost. Can be grown outdoors in mild climates or indoors year-round.
