Red Campfire (also known as Crassula corymbulosa or Crassula “Red Campfire”) is a captivating succulent known for its vibrant, fire-like coloration and unique growth habit. Here’s a detailed overview:

Appearance:

• Leaves: Red Campfire has thick, fleshy leaves that are typically rounded and somewhat triangular. The leaves are green but develop striking red, orange, or pink tips, giving them a fire-like appearance. The intensity of the red coloring can become more pronounced with exposure to bright light and cooler temperatures.
• Growth: The plant forms a compact rosette or cluster of leaves, which can grow up to about 10-15 cm (4-6 inches) in diameter. The rosette is dense and symmetrical, making it a visually appealing addition to succulent arrangements.

Growth:

• Shape: It maintains a rosette shape with overlapping leaves arranged in a circular pattern. The rosette can become fuller and more rounded as the plant matures.
• Rate: Red Campfire grows relatively slowly but steadily, producing new leaves from the center of the rosette and forming a fuller appearance over time. It can also produce offsets or “pups” around the base.

Flowers:

• Blooming Period: The plant may produce flowers in late winter to early spring.
• Flowers: The flowers are small and star-shaped, appearing on slender flower stalks that rise above the rosette. They are typically white or pink, adding a delicate touch to the plant.

Care:

• Light: Red Campfire prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate some direct sunlight. Adequate light helps maintain the plant’s vibrant colors and compact form. The red tips of the leaves can become more vivid with good light exposure.
• Soil: Use a well-draining soil mix, such as a cactus or succulent mix. Proper drainage is crucial to prevent root rot.
• Watering: Water only when the soil is completely dry. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so let the soil dry out between waterings. Reduce watering during the winter months when the plant is less active.
• Temperature: Red Campfire prefers warmer temperatures but can tolerate cooler conditions. It is sensitive to frost, so keep it in a warm environment and protect it from cold temperatures.

Propagation:

• Offsets: The plant can be propagated from offsets or “pups” that grow around the base. These can be gently separated from the main rosette and potted up.
• Leaf Cuttings: It can also be propagated from leaf cuttings. Allow the leaf to callous over for a few days before planting it in well-draining soil. Keep the soil moist until new growth appears.

Red Campfire is valued for its eye-catching, fire-like coloration and attractive rosette shape, making it a popular choice for succulent enthusiasts and collectors. Its relatively easy care requirements and striking appearance make it a delightful addition to any indoor or outdoor succulent garden.
