Buddha’s Temple Crassula, botanically listed as Crassula ‘Buddha’s Temple’, is a live succulent plant selected for its distinctive form and ornamental appeal. Natural color, size, form, and presentation may vary slightly with season, maturity, and growing conditions.

Morphological Characteristics


Crassula ‘Buddha’s Temple’ is a remarkable hybrid succulent in the Crassulaceae family, likely a cross between Crassula pyramidalis and Crassula perfoliata var. falcata. Native to South Africa, it’s prized for its architectural precision and unique, columnar form that resembles a miniature pagoda or temple tower—hence the name.


This compact plant features densely stacked, grey-green leaves that are tightly pressed together in perfect geometric symmetry. The square columns can reach 10–15 cm (4–6 inches) in height and about 3–5 cm (1–2 inches) in width. The leaves are thick, fleshy, and triangular with slightly upturned tips, forming a cross-shaped silhouette when viewed from above.


During late spring or summer, mature plants may produce a cluster of small pink to reddish flowers at the apex of the column. However, flowering is infrequent and the plant is mostly grown for its stunning structural appearance.

Growth Habits


Crassula ‘Buddha’s Temple’ grows slowly and maintains a tight, upright columnar shape. It remains a solitary grower, occasionally branching at the base if damaged or stressed. It’s ideal for small pots, geometric planters, or as part of a minimalist succulent arrangement. Its sculptural look makes it a favorite for collectors and design-conscious growers.

Maintenance Points


Lighting: Prefers bright, indirect light to filtered sunlight. Avoid harsh afternoon sun, which may scorch the leaves. Indoors, place near a south- or east-facing window.


Watering: Water sparingly. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. In winter, reduce watering to once every 3–4 weeks. Overwatering is the most common threat.


Soil: Requires a well-draining succulent mix. Amend with perlite or pumice to avoid water retention, which can lead to root or stem rot.


Temperature: Best kept between 18–27°C (65–80°F). Can tolerate brief exposure to around 4°C (40°F), but must be kept dry during cold weather.


Fertilization: During the growing season (spring to early autumn), feed monthly with a diluted succulent fertilizer. Avoid fertilizing in winter.


Potting: Use shallow pots with good drainage. Repot every 2–3 years or when roots outgrow the pot. Repot in spring before the growth period.


Humidity: Prefers low humidity. Ensure good airflow and avoid misting, which may encourage fungal issues between tightly stacked leaves.

Reproduction Method


1. Stem Offsets / Cuttings:


Selection: If offsets form at the base, they can be carefully removed with a clean knife.


Callusing: Let the offset dry for 3–5 days in a shaded area until a callus forms.


Planting: Place in a well-draining mix. Water lightly after a few days, then treat as a mature plant.


2. Leaf Propagation (Difficult):


• Rarely successful due to the leaf structure. Full rosette or offset propagation is preferred.


3. Seeds:


• Extremely rare and not commonly used for this hybrid.

Additional Tips


Pest Control: Watch for mealybugs between leaf layers. Use a soft brush or insecticidal soap to treat gently.


Disease Prevention: Avoid water entering the leaf crevices. Water directly at the soil line.


Pruning: Not required. Remove dead flower stalks or dried base leaves if present.


Display: Pairs beautifully with minimalist ceramics or as part of a Japanese-style rock garden.


Safety Note: Non-toxic and safe for pets and children. Handle gently to preserve symmetry.

Crassula ‘Buddha’s Temple’ is a living sculpture—compact, geometric, and truly meditative in form. With proper care, it can serve as a serene and eye-catching centerpiece in any succulent collection or indoor display.

Highly recommend!!
Size: Pack of 10, Set name: Classic
I bought these for camping and hiking. They lasted about a day for each bracelet before they started to lose smell. We did not find any ticks on us and no bug bites! Already purchased more for our next trip! Highly recommend!!

These bracelets work but with caveats. I got them because sometimes I want to take quick walks outside, but don't want to put on sticky big spray and have to shower 2x a day because of the spray. Enter these bracelets. 1st caveat: they fairly quickly decrease in efficacy, which makes me feel guilty for creating so much non compostable/recyclable waste relatively quickly. I have a neighbor with a swampy pool that causes a bunch of mosquitos in the neighborhood in the summer. Without the bracelets, I got 14 bites when going outside for 1 hour. With the bracelets (1st wear and one per limb), I got none. 2nd caveat: I have found that I need 1 bracelet per limb in order to avoid bites. For a nighttime Joshua tree stargazing outing with a friend, we each only put one on and both got bit up like crazy. Later, I gave the bracelets another chance. I put one on each elbow and one on each knee. Wore them and then put them back in the pouches for later use. No bites. Used them a 2nd and 3rd time with no bites, but got 4 bites today with the 4th use, which indicates they're at their effective end of life at around 3 or 4 wears. Overall, they work if you make sure you have a little citronella bubble around you by putting one on each limb, but they generate a relatively large amount of waste for the amount of protection they provide, and the protection itself can be spotty. If your only goal is to not use chemical spray on your skin, these bracelets meet it. If your goal is solely to not get bit, spray might be a better choice.

Great gift for keeping the mosquitoes away!
Size: Pack of 10, Set name: Classic
My significant other loves to take hikes in the woods and for now, it is bug free, but that won't last long here in Minnesota! I gave him these insect repellent bracelets before and he really appreciated them. He doesn't like spraying bug repellant on himself or his clothing, so these bracelets are the ticket for him! I tucked them in a gift bag along with some trail mix for his next hiking adventure. He loved them! You will, too!
