	Crassula ''Crassula'' is a genus of succulent plants containing about 200 accepted species, including the popular jade plant (''Crassula ovata''). They are members of the stonecrop family (Crassulaceae) and are native to many parts of the globe, but cultivated varieties originate almost exclusively from species from the Eastern Cape of South Africa. Crassulas are usually propagated by stem or leaf cuttings. Most cultivated forms will tolerate some small degree of frost, but extremes of cold or heat will cause them to lose foliage and die. Taxonomy ''Crassula'' was first formally described by Carl Linnaeus in 1753 with 10 species. Etymology The name crassula comes from the Latin adjective ''crassus'', meaning thick, referring to the thickening of the succulent leaves. Selected species '' Crassula alata'' '' Crassula alba'' '' Crassula alpestris'' (Sand-Coated Crassula) '' Crassula alstonii'' '' Crassula aquatica'' (common pigmyweed, water pygmyweed) '' Crassula arborescens ...

picture info	Africa Africa is the world's second-largest and second-most populous continent after Asia. At about 30.3 million km2 (11.7 million square miles) including adjacent islands, it covers 20% of Earth's land area and 6% of its total surface area.Sayre, April Pulley (1999), ''Africa'', Twenty-First Century Books. . With nearly billion people as of , it accounts for about of the world's human population. Demographics of Africa, Africa's population is the youngest among all the continents; the median age in 2012 was 19.7, when the worldwide median age was 30.4. Based on 2024 projections, Africa's population will exceed 3.8 billion people by 2100. Africa is the least wealthy inhabited continent per capita and second-least wealthy by total wealth, ahead of Oceania. Scholars have attributed this to different factors including Geography of Africa, geography, Climate of Africa, climate, corruption, Scramble for Africa, colonialism, the Cold War, and neocolonialism.

picture info	Crassulaceae The Crassulaceae (, from Latin ''crassus'', thick), also known as the crassulas, the stonecrops or the orpine family, are a diverse Family (biology), family of dicotyledon angiosperms primarily characterized by succulent leaves and a form of photosynthesis known as crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM), in which plants photosynthesize in the daytime and exchange gases during the cooler temperatures of the night. The blossoms of crassulas generally have five floral parts. Crassulaceae are usually herbaceous, though there are some subshrubs, and relatively few trees or aquatic plants. The Crassulaceae is a medium-sized, monophyletic family in the core eudicots clade, along with the order Saxifragales, whose diversity has made infrafamilial classification very difficult. The family includes approximately 1,400 species and 34–35 genera—depending on the circumscription of the genus ''Sedum''—distributed over three subfamilies. Members of the Crassulaceae are found worldwide, though ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]

It contains 15 Families (biology), families and around 100 genera, with nearly 2,500 species. Well-known and economically important members of this order include Saxifraga, saxifrages (after whom the order is named), blackcurrants, redcurrants, Gooseberry, gooseberries, Peony, peonies, liquidambars, witch-hazel, Parrotia persica, Persian ironwood, Cercidiphyllum, katsura, Crassula ovata, jade plant, Sempervivum, houseleeks, and Myriophyllum, water milfoil. Of the 15 families, many are small, with eight of them being Monotypic taxon, monotypic (having only a single genus). The largest family is the Crassulaceae (stonecrops), a diverse group of mostly Succulent plant, succulent plants, with about 35 genera.
