Representatives of the genus are widespread on all continents and are an example of biological cosmopolitanism. Many species are popular houseplants (like the "money tree"). 4.

Plants range from a few centimeters to 3-4 meters in height 6. Crassula prefers an arid tropical climate, which is why it grows in the wild in Africa, Madagascar and Arabia. 7. There are several stories about money trees. Eastern traders called this plant jade, that is, nephrite, since the leaves were compared to dinars. This is where the rumors came from that the money tree brings wealth. 8.
