Adromischus cristatus

Adromischus cristatus, commonly known as the Crinkle-Leaf Plant, is a compact, slow-growing succulent native to South Africa. It is cherished for its unique, thick green leaves that feature wavy or crinkled edges, giving the plant a distinctive appearance. The leaves are covered with fine hairs, adding a silvery sheen and aiding in moisture retention. This drought-tolerant plant thrives in well-draining soil and prefers bright, indirect sunlight. Adromischus cristatus produces slender flower stalks with small, tubular flowers, typically in spring. It’s an ideal choice for indoor gardens, rockeries, or succulent arrangements due to its low-maintenance nature. Overwatering should be avoided, as the plant is susceptible to root rot. Its compact size makes it suitable for small spaces and container gardening. This charming succulent adds texture and interest to any collection, appealing to both novice and experienced plant enthusiasts.
