Crassula perforata, also called String of Buttons, gives you stacked leaves and upright stems with a clean look. You get slow, tidy growth that suits shelves and sunny windowsills. Place your plant in bright light. Some direct sun helps keep the colour sharp. Let the soil dry out fully before you water again. Use a free draining pot. Turn the pot every week so the stems stay straight. Remove dry lower leaves to keep the base neat.

You can place String of Buttons outside in the UK during warm summer months. Choose a sunny, dry, sheltered spot. Small flowers may appear on mature plants. These can attract bees and hoverflies. This supports local pollinators. Bring the plant back inside when nights fall near 10°C.

This plant suits you if you want a compact succulent with simple care. You get clear structure, slow growth, and an easy routine.
