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.

Vader's Second Marvel Series Is Good!
Format: Paperback
This is actually the start of a second Vader series. The first one began, along with the new Marvel main Star Wars series, right after the Death Star was destroyed. That Vader series birthed the new characters of Doctor Aphra, Triple Zero, BeeTee, and Cylo. Now, that series has come to an end. THIS NEW SERIES IS GOOD! It picks up the moment that Anakin Skywalker awakes in his armor at the end of Revenge of the Sith. It chronicles the first steps of Darth Vader. We learn something new about the Sith. They do not create their own lightsabers. They must take a saber from a Jedi and make it their own. The Sith blades are red and only red. Why? Palpatine explains that the kyber crystals that power the sabers are living things within the Force. This is backed up by the Rogue One novel (it was either that or Catalyst). The crystals are rock, but they are also alive. In the hands of a Sith, the new owner uses the Dark Side to push all his pain into the crystal--until the crystal bleeds and turns the color of the beam red. I just think that is all sorts of awesome!

Vader when he still is Anakin
Format: Paperback
This comic picks up right where Episode III left off. Like directly. There's the whole "Noooooooooo" thing and everything. I liked seeing Vader when he is new to being a Sith. It really is Anakin under there still. Throughout the comic, that Anakin begins to fall away. I liked the mix of prequel and original trilogy aesthetic. Seeing Vader alongside clone troopers was very cool. The Grand Inquisitor even makes a cameo! I read the Dark Horse comics that took place right after Order 66 so certain aspects of this comic remind me of those. In this comic, there are jedi who took the Barash Vow prior to the Purge, so they are still out and about in the galaxy. Vader takes this opportunity to take a lightsaber and make it bleed. I really enjoyed this first volume in a new, ongoing comic series. I am absolutely excited for volume two. I give this volume a 5/5.

The Lord Vader Treatment
Format: Kindle
Love this Darth perspective. It potentially fills in some gaps in the timeline in the beginning of his transition. Loved the humor and the art.
