If you are looking for a unique and low-maintenance succulent plant to add to your collection? Then, look no further than the Propeller plant - known as Crassula falcata (or Crassula Perfoliata var. falcata)! Thisunbranched succulent belongs to theCrassulaceaefamily and has its origin in South Africa. 

This Crassula falcata gets its common name, "propeller plant," from the distinct shape of its leaves, which resemble the blades of a propeller. It is also known as the airplane plant, distinguished by its propeller-shaped leaves, which give it a realistic appearance of taking off. These grey-green leaves with reddish edges are thick, triangular, and curved, which can become more pronounced as the plant grows in plenty of sunlight. It grows as a compact shrub, often reaching a height of 12 inches. 

The flowering of the propeller plant begins from late spring to early summer. Once fully bloomed, the star-shaped bright orange-red flowers easily last up to a month. The propeller crassula is easy to bloom but needs cooler conditions to encourage flowering in the summer months. Propeller succulents have a medium growth rate.  

To propagate Crassula falcata from stem or leaf cuttings during the spring or late summer of the season; is the best approach to grow healthy propeller Crassula from the mother plant. Additionally, offsets Crassula falcata will self-propagate, growing offsets. This summer dormant plant can be easily propagated and is one of the few succulents that grows well indoors. 

The propeller plant (Crassula falcata) is considered friendly to both humans and pets. So, you don't have to worry about any major toxicity issues with this propeller succulent.

Watering Needs 

When it comes to watering the Crassula falcata propeller plant, it's important to strike the right balance. This succulent doesn't like to be overwatered, as it can lead to root rot and other issues.  

The propeller plant prefers a "soak and dry" watering method. This means that you should thoroughly water your propeller plant, allowing the water to flow out of the drainage holes, and then wait for the soil to dry out completely before watering again. It's crucial to avoid letting the succulent sit in standing water, as this can cause root rot. During the hottest months of the year (summer), your plant may enter a dormant growth phase, which means its water requirements will be lower than usual.   

Remember, it's always better to underwater than to overwater this succulent. If you're unsure whether it needs watering, it's best to err on the side of caution and wait for the soil to dry out before giving it a drink. Observing the plant and checking the moisture level of the soil will help you determine the watering needs more accurately. 

Light Requirements 

For the best growth, this propeller plant should be exposed to full sun to partial sun. If growing indoors, it prefers a spot where it can get a good amount of bright, indirect sunlight, but not direct sunlight for prolonged periods. Placing it near a window with a sheer curtain or in a well-lit room would be ideal. 

If you notice that the leaves of your propeller plant are stretching or leaning toward the light source, it's a sign that it needs more bright sunlight. On the other hand, if the leaves start turning yellow or brown, they may be getting too much direct sunlight. 

Remember, finding the right balance is key. You want to provide enough light for your propeller plant to grow and thrive, but also protect it from intense, direct sunlight that can scorch its leaves. 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

Crassula falcatagrows healthily in well-drained soil. Use a well-drained specialty soil mix, as this type of potting soil mix has been precisely developed to imitate well-draining desert soils. Commercial succulent soil is affordable and accessible online. Here at Planet Desert, we have a specialty-formulated succulent potting mix that contains 5 natural substrates and organic mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your propeller plant to thrive. 

As for fertilizer, the propeller plant doesn't require heavy feeding. You can use a balanced, water-soluble NPK fertilizer formulated. During the growing season (spring), fertilize your plant once a year. It's important not to over-fertilize your propeller plant, as this can cause excessive growth and weaken the plant. Always err on the side of caution and use a little less fertilizer than recommended, especially if your plant is in a small pot. 

Hardiness Zones & More 

The Crassula falcata propeller plant is native to South Africa; it is not cold hardy in general, but it can be grown outside in USDA hardiness zones 9-11. It prefers warm temperatures and can tolerate a range of temperatures between 50°F and 85°F. However, it is important to protect it from frost and freezing temperatures, as they can damage or kill the plant. 

In terms of humidity, the propeller plant is adaptable and can tolerate a range of humidity levels. It can thrive in average indoor humidity, but it also does well in drier conditions. However, it's important to note that excessively dry air can cause the leaves to shrivel, so it's a good idea to provide some moisture through occasional misting or placing a tray of water near the plant to increase humidity. 

Remember, providing the right temperature and humidity conditions can help your propeller plant thrive and stay healthy. 

Give this succulent a try if you're looking for an easy Crassula falcata propeller plant to care for!

Amazing Bar Soap!
Scent: SOLDIER COLLECTION, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 6)
I am so pleased with my purchase of this soap! Not only does it have natural ingredients that are good for the skin, but it works better than most real soaps I’ve ever tried! It is very moisturizing, yet doesn’t leave a film behind and rinses off quickly and cleanly. It has really calmed down my extremely sensitive skin even more so than dermatologist recommended body washes and soap. It seems like a lot of dermatologists recommend non-soap products as being more comforting to sensitive skin. However,, I have found that old-fashioned soap that undergoes saponification tend to be gentler to my skin and less prone to causing dry skin and a compromised skin barrier. Amongst the real soaps there is of course variation in performance depending on the types of oils and additives they use. This soap has the perfect blend of oils and additives that create a super sudsy and moisturizing bar of soap. The scent is very light, but it has the perfect amount where you can smell the soap ingredients a bit mixed with the perfect amount of scent. The scents are very addicting and I randomly enjoy just smelling the bar because they smell that good. If you’re on the fence about this soap, just give it a try. I have been very pleased with it and will definitely purchase it again. A very fair price for the quality you’re getting.

Decent & Natural
Scent: SOLDIER COLLECTION, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 6)
The soaps all smell good and unique, however the scents aren’t very potent, and some seem to vary more than others in the olfactory department. I started with the army soap, but I’m not sure whether they use natural coloring or not, but it apparently sheds some green in the shower. Overall, I’d say they are high quality and natural, but they’re a bit steep in price. I would recommend them if you can get them on sale at some point.

Scents are all awesome and they ARE PLENTY strong!
Scent: SOLDIER COLLECTION, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 6), Scent: SOLDIER COLLECTION, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 6)
First thing I want to say is i do not ever leave a false review to save a few bucks or get something free. Secondly that I have zero clue what some of these people are expecting when they say the scents are not very strong, they absolutely 100% for sure are plenty strong. I was expecting a very faint smelling bar after reading the reviews and when the box showed up (next day delivery) I did not even have to tear open the what seemed to be air tight plastic wrap off the box to smell the soaps. After removing the plastic wrap I immediately thought what in the ever loving hockey sticks are these people talking about! It smelled excellent and PLENTY strong. Then I was even more shocked to open the box and see every bar is individually sealed in plastic wrap! Like I honestly dont know how you would even want your soap smelling any stronger than that. It is just as strong as the O. Spice swagger body wash which I used for many years and am just making the switch to a healthier option for my body. So with that out of the way. This soap is awesome. I really like every scent a lot and if it weren't for the coast guard scent I wouldnt be able to pick a favorite, however that coast guard scent is flawless in my opinion. I would absolutely buy a cologne that smelled like that. They all definitely do smell like mens colognes and somehow they nailed each one smelling good when 95% of actual mens colognes smell like crap haha. I have only actually used the coast guard bar as I just got these today and soon as I smelled that one I knew it was going first. But with my one use I will say I am really happy and already have two more boxes in my cart. Smell gets stronger in the warm water but loses potency if that makes sense? Like it gets stronger but doesnt become overbearing to cause a headache or something, smells fantastic. Lathers up real nice when using my scrubber, feels great on the skin and probably what I love the most is that it rinses completely off like 10,000 times quicker than body washes. I hate that about body washes I always have to rinse off then spend like 10 minutes scrubbing my skin to get the film off of me, with this I just rinsed off for about 2 minutes and completely off, no scrubbing my skin after and no film just clean skin. I did also notice my skin felt a hair more hydrated, but that could also be because I am so used to body washes leaving it feeling dry. Another thing I really like is how they list all Ingredients of each individual soap very clearly on the back of the box that is a nice touch I thought. I went with this brand to try because reviews all seemed good and price point was actually reasonable unlike them other guys which I would never pay that price for soap, and I'm really happy i did, it's better than I expected and I honestly can not think of anything I dont like about it. The one con I can think of is I immediately jumped on here to see about getting multiples of just the coast guard bars and it seems you can only buy this mixed box. Which is not a problem I like them all plenty well, just really really like the coast guard scent. Please SOLDIER dont jack your prices up once you get bigger as I'm sure you will get bigger with this good a product. But that's what I feel really separates you is that you are selling them at a reasonable price and not gouging people. Buy this!

A great man's soap
Scent: SOLDIER COLLECTION, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 6)
I bought these for my husband as a partial Valentine's Day gift. He likes smelly soaps. These are mildly scented with essential oils instead of chemicals. They are also gluten-free which means I can sneak a use of the "fresh" scents. They lather up nicely but are not soft so that they melt. A good man-sized bar. And, made in the USA!
