They very rarely need water. You’ll know if they need a drink because their leaves will wrinkle a little.
They all like lots of light. If possible, put them next to a window that gets lots of sun. They don’t like shade.
Help keep their nutrients topped up with a dose of liquid fertiliser once in spring and again in summer.

Their scientific name is crassula arborescens, but they’re popularly known as the silver dollar plant, because of their thick, silvery, round leaves. This one will eventually grow quite large if you let it, but you can cut their stems back to keep them small. They may grow pink flowers in spring.
