Plants 0.1-0.3 m high when flowering, usually with many rosettes with leaves apparently 2-ranked and tightly packed even when flowering, or leaves shorter than 15 mm. Leaves broadly obovate, 5-15(-25) x (5-)8-30 mm broad, usually truncate, densely hairy to glabrous and with cilia. Inflorescence not branched and lower clusters of dichasia rarely stalked, but often with several inflorescences from different rosettes of same plant. Squamae transversely oblong, square or oblong and usually somewhat constricted towards base. From: Toelken, HR. 1985. Crassulaceae. Fl. S. Africa 14: 1-229. [CC BY]
The habit and obovate leaves are very similar to those of C. barbata, but that species is distinguished by its glabrous stems and calyces. In addition, var. glabrifolia usually produces a whole cluster of rosettes which remain compact even when flowering, and the leaf-like bracts on the peduncle are abruptly shorter than the leaves below except in plants from the Ceres Karoo. In the western Richtersveld the leaves are larger and often completely glabrous, and although the plants are superficially similar to those of var. tomentosa, the transversely oblong squamae indicate that this is a form of var. glabrifolia.The squamae gradually become longer southwards so that they are about square in the vicinity of Vanrhynsdorp and become oblong further south. The leaves of the most southern representatives of this variety are rarely longer than 12 mm so that there is no difficulty in distinguishing them from the much more robust plants of var. tomentosa. From: Toelken, HR. 1985. Crassulaceae. Fl. S. Africa 14: 1-229. [CC BY]
Growing usually in sheltered rock crevices or under overhanging rocks. From: Toelken, HR. 1985. Crassulaceae. Fl. S. Africa 14: 1-229. [CC BY]
Found in south-eastern South West Afri/Namibia and in the Cape Province all along the eastern slopes of the mountains bordering the Great Karoo and Tanqua Karoo from Bushmanland to near Laingsburg. From: Toelken, HR. 1985. Crassulaceae. Fl. S. Africa 14: 1-229. [CC BY]
