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!

Love it get it girl!
love this collagen balm stick—it really feels like a little “magic wand” for my skin! It’s so easy to apply and super convenient to use on the go for the eyes, neck, and face. The texture glides on smoothly without feeling greasy, and it gives an instant boost of hydration and a nice glow. I like that it helps my skin feel more plump and refreshed, especially on dry or tired areas. It’s become a quick step in my routine when I need a fast touch-up or extra moisture. Overall, very impressed with how effective and easy it is to use! ✨

Surprised!
I was really hesitant to get this product because of the very mixed reviews but I decided to give it a try. I was so completely surprised by this and its effectiveness and appearance. While I haven’t used it long enough to know if it has any effect on fine lines, the under eye effect is truly magical. I’ve yet to find any product that makes my bags go away, but I just put a light layer of this on and my bags go away in 10 minutes and I look like I slept twelve hours and aged in reverse. It is definitely a greasy product so if you are prone to oily skin, I’d say this may not be the product for you. For me, I put a light layer on under my eyes, my smile lines, and forehead. For me, it absorbs quite well and leaves my skin looking very shiny and glowy which I love. I have not had any issues with the texture of it, or had it leave any residue but I’m using quite a thin layer, which I think is what is intended. 10/10 would but again.

AMAZING!!
This stuff actually WORKS, Y'ALL! I was hopeful when I ordered but didn't totally know what to expect. But after using the entire tube I CAN SAY IT WORKS! I'll be 40 in a couple of weeks. A smoker for almost 25yrs and big time tanaholic and it shows on my face 😟, so I need help. The most noticeable difference is what it did to my crows feet. They're still there BUT NOT when I have just resting face. They show up when I laugh or smile, but if I just have a straight face I have ZERO crows feet now. I used it every night, a few times during the day (maybe like 5× max), but I kept it next to my bed and put it allover my face, with more attention to my eye area. I got it on 11-23 and started using that day. On 12-16 I thought I'd used it all up, so got mad and ordered a different product (same concept, just different brand). But realized I just needed to twist more and I had way more product left 😬. So like I said, I used this from 11-23 every night religiously until I ACTUALLY used it ALL on 1-4. I DO have a noticeable difference in skin texture, smoothness and definite hydration. The scent is barely there and the longevity is good, too. I mean I used this religiously and it lasted almost 6 weeks. The value for the money was great when I ordered it, it costs more now though. It IS a lil greasy, but I was using it at night so I didn't care and it didn't cause any breakouts 🙌🏼 I'm gonna try this new stuff I got since I already ordered it and see how I like it. If not then I'm buying this again for sure! I literally used every last drop 😂 **EDIT TO ADD** I completely forgot to tell y'all what this did to my 11's!!! Idk the proper term, but the deep lines you get on the inside of your brows, especially noticeable when you frown or focus: VERY BIG CHANGE! I'm NOT claiming this will work on everyone but it's done wonders for me! My 11's are still here but they're nowhere as close to what they were! Not as deep or noticeable, soooo much smoother! I ordered a similar product, (different brand) and started using it on 1-5. Today is 1-30 and I'm already out of it so I came back to order THIS again, the Dr. Melaxin Balm stick. It lasts longer and works better than the high-end product that only lasted 25 days. THIS BALM STICK IS WHERE IT'S AT, Y'ALL!!

Great product for dry, sensitive under eyes, however does not really reduce wrinkles
Great moisturizer. While it’s marketed as reversing wrinkles that has not been my experience however I have very thin skin underneath my eyes that is often dry and very dark from allergies. I put this on every day and every night and I have noticed a huge difference in the way, my eyes look. I wouldn’t say it reduces wrinkles, but it definitely is really a great hydrator, especially if you have allergies. It’s very good for sensitive skin. I do use it all over my face, especially around my mouth area as well and again haven’t noticed that it really reduces my wrinkles, but it definitely helps. Hydrate all those sensitive problem areas. I liked it so much. I bought it twice.
