Origin and Habitat: Garden origin (Nursery produced cultivar). The original natural habitat of this species is the eastern Cape in South Africa, also in KwaZulu-Natal and Mozambique.
Common Names include:
ENGLISH: Variegated Jade Tree, Variegated Jade Plant
CHINESE (中文): 三色花月锦Description: Crassula ovata cv. Lemon & Lime (Variegated Jade Plant) is a spectacular slow growing cultivar close in appearance to the common jade plant but with shiny cream stripes on spoon-shaped leaves. Just as its all green cousin it is a many-branching succulent shrub with a stout trunk up to 120-180 cm tall. It bears pale-green, obovate pointed leaves that are streaked with a white variegation. New growth sometimes has a hint of pink over the white. Like most variegated plants, it is a slow grower. This form is sometimes called 'Tricolor' because of the tinge of pink on the new growth.
Habit: It forms an upright, bonsai-like plant that at maturity grows up to 100-120(-250) cm.
Stems: The segmented branches may be brown or grey-green in colour
Leaves: 2,5-5 cm long spatulate, oblong, thick, fleshy, light green with broad, creamy-white stripes, except for that occasional leaf that is completely white or cream colored. Leaves are often tipped with a pink margin on the new growth and when grown in the sun.
Flowers: Small pink or white, star-shaped in apical clusters 5 to 7 cm across within the foliage.
Blooming season: Late autumn/early winter and bloom for many weeks.qua''식물 > 들꽃-돌나물과(Crassulaceae)' 카테고리의 다른 글
