Spring is here and it's a great time for planting!
It's also a busy time and sometimes we ship faster than we can update our website.
So if we are out of a product, we will contact you and ask for a substitution.
This doesn't happen very often.
It helps though if you add your phone number to the notes section of your order.

Crassula ovata gollum

We have 5 gallon plants that are available for local pickup. The prices vary from $50 to $100 depending on the size. Crassula argentea cv. 'Gollum' is considered to be a monstrose form of the popular jade plant (Crassula argentea). The leaves, unlike the flattened leaves of regular Jade, form odd tubular, lime green "fingers". The tip of the leaf is flared, but depressed in the center and often a brilliant, translucent red. Excellent as patio plant or landscape plant. With its red-tipped fingers atop a thick, gnarly trunk "Gollum" is also a great bonsai subject; 1'-3' tall, 1'-2' wide. The jade plant is a popular subject for bonsai training due to the inherent gnarly character of the thickened trunk and the ease with which it can be pruned and trained. In the case of "Gollum", the red-tipped "fingers" are an added plus to create an interesting bonsai plant. Porous soil with adequate drainage. Bright light to full sun. Water thoroughly when soil is dry to the touch. Protect from frost. Crassula argentea cv. 'Gollum' is considered to be a monstrose form of the popular jade plant (Crassula argentea).
