Crested Succulents

Crested succulents are unique and fascinating plants that exhibit a rare growth mutation known as fasciation. Instead of growing in a typical rosette or upright form, their stems or leaves develop into flattened, fan-like, or undulating shapes. This striking appearance occurs due to irregular growth at the plant's meristem, giving them sculptural and ornamental qualities. Common examples include crested varieties of echeveria, euphorbia, and cacti. These plants thrive in well-draining soil, bright indirect light, and minimal watering, making them excellent choices for collectors and enthusiasts seeking unusual additions to their succulent gardens.
