Cousin It

I call this my "Cousin It" plant.  It has taken over the pot and doing its thing.  I hoped originally the plant would have been more upright, but that is okay.  I have had this plant for several years.  I originally bought it at the Denver Botanic Gardens spring plant sale.  I am not sure of the species or variety.  The tag just says "Crassula sp.".  I think the species is Nealeana, but not 100% sure.  It is also a native of South Africa.  It spends is winters in the west facing bedroom and summers on the front porch. 

Happy plant

It is almost done blooming.  It has very small clusters of flowers. 

You wouldn't know it is planted in a pretty pot.

Another variety of Crassula Nealena.  This one has variegated leaves.  Cousin It started out this size.  I tried to kill this plant last winter.  Hopefully it will get as large as Cousin It.
