Crassula plant named ‘Candy Cane’

Abstract

A new and distinct Crassula cultivar named ‘Candy Cane’ is disclosed, characterized by an unusual, stable, tricolor variegation, comprised of white leaves, with marbling of mint green, accented by rose magenta margins. In addition, the new cultivar ‘Candy Cane’ branches as a young plant, and continues to rapidly branch, producing many terminal vegetative cuts that greatly enhance propagation of the cultivar in the commercial nursery. Additionally, the prolific branching quickly produces an attractive, fully branched that readily fills the production container, resulting in plants ready for sale at an earlier size, thereby reducing production times in the commercial nursery. The new variety is a Crassula , part of the Crassulaceae complex that includes Crassula, Crassula, Pachyphytum, Graptopelalum, Sedum and others. Crassula is a popular genus, typically produced as container plants or as landscape plants.

What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A new and distinct cultivar of  Crassula  plant named ‘CANDY CANE’ as herein illustrated and described.
