Crassula pellucida L. subsp. pellucida
LC Indigenous Endemic
Morphological description

Perennials with decumbent glabrous branches. Leaves obovate to broadly elliptic, obtuse or apiculate, with distinctly cuneate to subpetiolate base, with irregularly papillose margin; sheath glabrous. Inflorescence usually a terminal dichasium, rarely a terminal flower which may be borne in a leaf axil due to sympodial growth. Calyx two-thirds of, to as long as corolla, fleshy. Carpels with ovary walls becoming membranous when mature. From: Toelken, HR. 1985. Crassulaceae. Fl. S. Africa 14: 1-229. [CC BY]

Diagnostic description

The terminal dichasium is sometimes reduced to a single flower and as vegetative growth in all the subspecies usually starts from buds immediately below the inflorescence, it is not difficult to understand why subsp. alsinoides is included in this species. In subsp. pellucida the flowers are often overtopped by such vegetative growth. From: Toelken, HR. 1985. Crassulaceae. Fl. S. Africa 14: 1-229. [CC BY]

Habitat

Usually on rock outcrops, growing in shaded moist places under rocks or in forests. From: Toelken, HR. 1985. Crassulaceae. Fl. S. Africa 14: 1-229. [CC BY]

Distribution

Found in the south-western Cape from the Winterhoek Mountains to the Cape Peninsula, the Swartberg and near Swellendam. From: Toelken, HR. 1985. Crassulaceae. Fl. S. Africa 14: 1-229. [CC BY]
