Product Information
We do our best to ensure product descriptions, specifications, care information and other details are accurate and up to date. Information is provided as a general guide and may vary between batches, suppliers, individual plants or product revisions.

Stock availability
Website stock levels update live from our inventory system, but occasional discrepancies can occur due to in-store sales, damage or stock adjustments. This is more likely when only 1 or 2 units are showing as available.

Product images
Images are provided as a visual guide and may not show the exact individual item for sale. Plants can naturally vary in size, fullness, colour, shape and stage of growth, and images may show a mature specimen to demonstrate how a younger plant may develop.

Images are either owned by Kambarang Garden Centre, used under an appropriate licence or with permission, or created with AI assistance. AI imagery is used to improve the background of existing photos, and to provide representative images where a suitable real-world photo is difficult or impractical to obtain, particularly for mature plants. Special care is taken to preserve the genuine appearance, colour, form, foliage, flowers and growth habit as accurately as current AI image technology allows.

Plant sizing
Plant sizes refer to the pot size, not the exact size of the plant. For example:

  • 100 mm = 10 cm diameter pot
  • 140 mm = 14 cm diameter pot
  • 5 L = 5 litre pot

Smaller pot sizes generally indicate younger plants, although actual plant size can vary significantly between species, varieties and growth habits.

Description

Crassula ovata 'Gollum', commonly known as Gollum Jade, is a distinctive succulent featuring tubular, glossy green leaves with red-tinted, suction cup-like tips. Its unique foliage and slow-growing, shrubby form make it an excellent choice for bonsai, pots, or feature plants in rockeries and succulent gardens. In Perth, it thrives in full sun to partial shade, with its red leaf tips intensifying under bright light. During late spring to early summer (Kambarang to Birak), mature plants may produce small, star-shaped white or pale pink flowers, adding seasonal interest.

Gollum Jade prefers sandy, well-draining soil and requires minimal watering, only when the soil is completely dry. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so it's essential to ensure proper drainage. Feeding with a diluted succulent fertiliser during spring and summer (Djilba to Bunuru) can promote healthy growth. This hardy plant is well-suited to Perth's climate and can be grown both indoors and outdoors, making it a versatile addition to any garden or home.
