Here’s what you should know if you’re looking for Variegated Campfire in a pot:

🌿 About Crassula capitella ‘Campfire’ (Variegated):

• Appearance:

  • Long, pointed leaves that form low clusters or rosettes.

  • Stunning variegation: creamy yellow, pale green, sometimes blushed with pink or red, especially when exposed to bright sunlight.

  • As it matures, the plant spreads and can create dense mats or trailing edges over pots.

• Size: Typically about 6–8 inches tall; spreads wider over time.

🪴 Pot setup:

• Pot size: A 4–6 inch pot works well for small specimens; larger as it grows. If you want a starter plant, you can keep it in a 3–4 inch pot for a while.

• Pot type: Terra cotta, ceramic, or plastic with drainage holes. Terra cotta is great because it helps the soil dry out between waterings.

• Soil: Use well-draining cactus or succulent mix; you can mix in perlite or pumice for extra drainage.

☀️ Care Tips:
✅ Light: Bright sunlight to bring out the red and pink tones. Indoors, place it near a sunny window; outdoors, give it partial to full sun (avoid intense afternoon heat if in very hot climates).
✅ Watering: Let soil dry completely between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
✅ Temperature: Prefers warm temperatures; protect from frost.
✅ Growth: Can be pruned or trimmed to encourage compact, bushier growth.
