Hardiness- Crassula ovata Tricolor' can withstand temperatures as low as 30 to 50 °F (-1.1 to 10 °C), USDA hardiness zones 10a to 11 b.
Watering- These plants have typical watering needs for succulents. Avoid overwatering by using the "soak and dry" method, where the soil is soaked with water, slowly drained and left to dry out before watering again. Reduce watering in winter.
Fertilizing- Crossulos will benefit from a small amount of organic fertilizer in mid-spring when they start actively growing.
Repotting- Repot as needed, preferably in spring, at the beginning of a period of active growth.
Propagation- Crossulos are generally started by leaves or stem cuttings. They can also be grown from seeds and offsets.
