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!

Good for already soft mattresses, 1in thickness.
Color: Dark Grey, Size: Queen
If your mattress is already soft, it will help. It's less than 1in thick after tumbling for 40 minutes. It did fit my queen bed and felt somewhat soft when laying down but it didn't help much as far as comfort. Quality wise it looks good, not cheap and while my sleep quality wasn't improved, it might help someone with a better mattress than mine.

Must have for mattress comfort and protection
Color: Green, Size: Twin, Color: Green, Size: Twin
I ordered the BDEUS Twin mattress topper for a temporary mattress. The topper definitely improves comfort and regulates temperature much better than just the mattress and sheets. The cover fits deep mattress easily fitting over my 13” mattress and could easily fit a much deeper bed. The padding is thick enough to provide some additional support. This model also has a thin sheet of waterproof material to help protect your mattress against spills or liquid damage. This layer is cover by the pillow top and does not seem to make much if any noticeable noise. Overall this is a high quality cover and mattress protector in one. At <$45 at the time of this review it provides an incredible value.

Adds comfort and support
Color: Green, Size: Twin
I’ve been using this bamboo mattress topper for a couple of weeks now, and it completely changed the feel of my bed. My mattress was starting to feel too firm and uncomfortable, especially on my lower back and shoulders, but this topper added the perfect amount of cushioning without making the bed feel overly soft or saggy. The cooling effect was one of the biggest surprises. I tend to sleep hot and usually wake up sweating during the night, but the bamboo-derived fabric feels breathable and much cooler than regular mattress pads I’ve owned before. It stays comfortable throughout the night and doesn’t trap heat like memory foam toppers sometimes do. I also really appreciate the waterproof protection. It gives peace of mind without feeling stiff or making that annoying crinkling noise some waterproof covers have. The surface still feels soft, plush, and smooth. It honestly feels more like a hotel-style pillow top than a basic mattress pad. The thickness is just right for pressure relief. It helped reduce the soreness I usually wake up with in my back, and I’ve been sleeping much more comfortably overall. The deep pockets also held securely on my twin mattress and didn’t slide around, even after moving a lot during sleep. Another thing I liked was how fluffy and well-made it looked right out of the package. After letting it expand for a bit, it became nicely plush and evenly padded. The stitching seems durable, and it still looks great after washing. If you’re looking for a softer, cooler sleeping surface with added waterproof protection and better support for aches and pains, this mattress topper is definitely worth it. It made my bed feel newer and far more comfortable without needing to buy a whole new mattress.

BDEUS Twin Mattress Topper, So Soft
Color: Green, Size: Twin, Color: Green, Size: Twin
Having purchased BDEUS products in the past, I was very looking forward to ordering the mattress topper made of viscose (a material derived from bamboo) just to see (and feel) the benefits of the material. My concern about the material, viscose derived from bamboo, is that the process to manufacture the material can be chemically intensive leading to harsh smells. I can say the topper has no off-putting smells. The quality of the manufacturing is present as there are no loose threads/seams, the material has no defects, and the print is uniform. The use of the material also leads to increased durability while enhancing the topper’s breathability and cooling properties. The topper is fitted meaning the topper will not come off the mattress very easily (even though you may need sheet straps if you are a wild sleeper). But the softness is wild, I mean this has to be one of the softest materials I have felt, and it feels very luxurious. Waterproofing and moisture-wicking is also a benefit as small spills are not absorbed into the fabric. The topper is also very thick and plush, and while the product listing touts “Back Pain Relief” it may be too soft depending on how firm, or soft, you prefer your mattress. I have to say this is definitely a five-star offering from BDEUS. This topper is for my daughter but I’m going to order a queen-sized topper for my bed as the price is just right.
