Introducing the Giant Watch Chain Succulent, known as Crassula imperialis, which is an intriguing and visually striking plant that belongs to Crassula, opens in a new tab genus. This unique succulent is renowned for its delicate, cascading appearance that resembles the links of a watch chain, lending it both its common name and its distinct aesthetic appeal. Its lush, green foliage and low-maintenance nature make it a popular choice for both indoor and outdoor gardens, providing a touch of elegance and exoticism to any plant collection. 

Native to South Africa, this Giant watch chain succulent plant thrives in arid and semi-arid environments, where it has adapted to withstand prolonged periods of drought Apart from the name "Giant Watch Chain Succulent," Crassula imperialis is also known by other common names such as "Princess Pine" and "Green Pagoda." These names highlight its attractive, structured growth pattern and the vibrant green color of its leaves, which resemble the architectural forms of pagodas or pine trees. 


The Crassula imperialis is a perennial plant that forms dense mats of interwoven stems.

Each stem is adorned with tiny, overlapping leaves that create a braided appearance. This succulent can reach a mature size of about 12 inches long.

This rare, impressive houseplant features branching stems of tightly overlapping, interlocking leaves, starting upright but eventually bending over and trailing due to leaf weight. It grows in a square mass similar to Crassula muscosa, but thicker.

When it blooms, the giant watch chain plant produces small, star-shaped white or pale pink flowers that cluster at the tips of the stems, adding a subtle touch of beauty to its already charming foliage. It blooms during the summer to fall. 

Caring for Crassula imperialis is relatively straightforward, making it an excellent choice for both novice and experienced gardeners. It thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate some direct sunlight, especially during the morning hours. It prefers well-drained succulent  soil, opens in a new tab, to prevent root rot. Watering should be done sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings to mimic its native arid conditions. 

When growing indoors, the ideal temperature range for this Crassula succulent is between 60°F and 75°F. It can tolerate occasional dips in temperature but should be protected from frost. For outdoor cultivation, Crassula imperialis is best suited for USDA hardiness zones 9 to 11, where the climate is warm and mild. 

The Crassula giant watch chain can be propagated through stem cuttings or leaf cuttings. To propagate, take a healthy stem or leaf cutting and allow it to callous over for a few days. Then, plant the cutting in well-draining soil and water it lightly. Within a few weeks, roots will begin to form, and a new plant will start to grow. This method allows gardeners to easily expand their collection or share this delightful plant with others.

Its unique, cascading growth pattern and delicate foliage make it a standout feature in both indoor and outdoor settings.

It was worth every cent
Color: Cool Grey, Size: 24x24x12 inch
I have BPPV. It's a condition where tiny ear crystals come out of place and move within your ear canals - this fools your brain into thinking you're in motion, causing severe dizziness. The most common treatment is the Epley Maneuver, and that actually helps a lot. However, I was going through a period where every single day I'd wake up with severe dizziness. Even if I managed to do the Epley Maneuver and it worked, the entire rest of the day would be ruined because I'd still feel generally unwell and nauseous. I ended up getting a book about BPPV and the author strongly recommended sleeping at at least a 30 degree angle. So, that's why I ended up buying this wedge pillow... I started using it April 26 and today is May 17. Since I began using it as a pillow, I have not woke up dizzy again. That is so huge! It may be that sleeping at a 30 degree angle deserves 5 Stars but thought I'd give this pillow 5 Stars too, as it's been a great experience. If you suffer from this, here's how the angle should be...If you lay your head on a pillow and open your eyes, you should not be looking at the ceiling. With the right angle, you should be looking at where the wall meets the ceiling. If so, you know you're at the right angle. As far as pillow itself, I'd say the pillow case fabric is of average quality. Not really remarkable in any way. It seems decent. Good value for the price. The inside is firm (which is just what I needed) but comfortable, and I tend to not move around much the entire night. I like this very much and if it does start wearing out, I'll definitely come back here and buy another. Would recommend.

A bit too firm but great otherwise
Color: Cool Grey, Size: 24x24x12 inch
I got this wedge pillow primarily to have something to lean my head against (I like to lay on my side when reading or looking at my phone at night sometimes), or to sit upright when reading in bed. It's very comfortable doing both now. It does a really good job at being a nice support for the back of my bed. Only negative is I feel it's too firm. I wouldn't use it as a primary pillow, but it's definitely good for back support at least. While I won't mark it down for this, I do find it very large. If you have anything smaller then a queen it may take up more of your bed then you'd like. Definitely recommend. Hopefully will last quite a long while as well.

So helpful after surgery.
Color: Solid Warm Gray, Size: 24x24x12 inch
Perfect support while recording from abdominal surgery. This pillow maintains its shape and is not overly soft. I used it vertically as a prop for watching television and then used it horizontally to prop myself up to sleep, once I returned to sleeping in bed. I used this daily for 6 weeks or so following surgery. The cover can be removed and machine washed. The non-slip nubbies are helpful. This pilllow is high quality and really helped to minimize pain and improve my sleep after surgery.

Nice wedge pillow but not enough...
Color: Cool Grey, Size: 24x24x12 inch
It came compacted and when I opened it expanded almost immediately, maybe took like 20 minutes to fully decompress. Its soft and comfortable and the cover is really nice. But it does have a strong chemical smell, which is normal for this kind of brand new memory foam, I just put it on a table with a window open near it and after maybe 24 hours the smell was almost completely gone. The problem is that I bought this to have a elevated position when sleeping but the 30° are just not enough for me. I wish it was at least 45° but I could not find any pillow with that amount of degree... it's either 30° or like 75° in the other position. At the base of the pillow there is a little ridge that is comfortable for the lower back but makes me slide down in the middle of the night so I end up almost laying flat with my neck on the base ridge. With my slim build my lumbar area gets some nice support but makes my head almost have a "fall backwards" sensation, I like having my neck have a "push-forward" position with my pillow, but when adding another pillow to try and get to a comfortable position it only makes me slide down even more... :/

Very firm and durable
Color: Cool Grey, Size: 24x24x12 inch
worked great for husbands surgery recovery. Very affordable, firmness was great, looked nice on the bed and also used it for the grandkids when they were watching a movie. Moved around with ease. Didn't use it to sleep with all night though. He could only make it half the night but that wasn't the pillows fault. It was the cast on his arm. Definitely did its purpose after surgery and the need to sit up in bed more. highly recommend
