continental : Let’s try to keep the ground fairly damp, watering every 2-3 weeks with 1-2 glasses of water; when the weather is very harsh and the temperatures are below zero, watering can be interrupted.

alpine : Every 3-4 weeks water the soil, trying to wet it deeply; keep the ground constantly moist, although we must avoid water stagnations. Usually 0-1 glasses of water are used.

mediterranean : We suggest watering regularly with 2-3 glasses of water, trying to keep the growing substratum pretty cool and moist; if the climate is very cold we can reduce watering. 1-2 weeks should go by between irrigations.

The Crassula millfordiae can stand without problems minimum winter temperatures.

Fertilization Crassula millfordiae : During the cold months of the year we recommend suspending the fertilization of the succulent plants, to avoid them from producing too many “new” tissues, which resist the cold weather very little and are easily attacked by fungal diseases, which develop more easily during the plants’ resting period.
