If you are looking for a unique and low-maintenance succulent plant to add to your collection? Then, look no further than the Propeller plant - known as Crassula falcata (or Crassula Perfoliata var. falcata)! Thisunbranched succulent belongs to theCrassulaceaefamily and has its origin in South Africa. 

This Crassula falcata gets its common name, "propeller plant," from the distinct shape of its leaves, which resemble the blades of a propeller. It is also known as the airplane plant, distinguished by its propeller-shaped leaves, which give it a realistic appearance of taking off. These grey-green leaves with reddish edges are thick, triangular, and curved, which can become more pronounced as the plant grows in plenty of sunlight. It grows as a compact shrub, often reaching a height of 12 inches. 

The flowering of the propeller plant begins from late spring to early summer. Once fully bloomed, the star-shaped bright orange-red flowers easily last up to a month. The propeller crassula is easy to bloom but needs cooler conditions to encourage flowering in the summer months. Propeller succulents have a medium growth rate.  

To propagate Crassula falcata from stem or leaf cuttings during the spring or late summer of the season; is the best approach to grow healthy propeller Crassula from the mother plant. Additionally, offsets Crassula falcata will self-propagate, growing offsets. This summer dormant plant can be easily propagated and is one of the few succulents that grows well indoors. 

The propeller plant (Crassula falcata) is considered friendly to both humans and pets. So, you don't have to worry about any major toxicity issues with this propeller succulent.

Watering Needs 

When it comes to watering the Crassula falcata propeller plant, it's important to strike the right balance. This succulent doesn't like to be overwatered, as it can lead to root rot and other issues.  

The propeller plant prefers a "soak and dry" watering method. This means that you should thoroughly water your propeller plant, allowing the water to flow out of the drainage holes, and then wait for the soil to dry out completely before watering again. It's crucial to avoid letting the succulent sit in standing water, as this can cause root rot. During the hottest months of the year (summer), your plant may enter a dormant growth phase, which means its water requirements will be lower than usual.   

Remember, it's always better to underwater than to overwater this succulent. If you're unsure whether it needs watering, it's best to err on the side of caution and wait for the soil to dry out before giving it a drink. Observing the plant and checking the moisture level of the soil will help you determine the watering needs more accurately. 

Light Requirements 

For the best growth, this propeller plant should be exposed to full sun to partial sun. If growing indoors, it prefers a spot where it can get a good amount of bright, indirect sunlight, but not direct sunlight for prolonged periods. Placing it near a window with a sheer curtain or in a well-lit room would be ideal. 

If you notice that the leaves of your propeller plant are stretching or leaning toward the light source, it's a sign that it needs more bright sunlight. On the other hand, if the leaves start turning yellow or brown, they may be getting too much direct sunlight. 

Remember, finding the right balance is key. You want to provide enough light for your propeller plant to grow and thrive, but also protect it from intense, direct sunlight that can scorch its leaves. 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

Crassula falcatagrows healthily in well-drained soil. Use a well-drained specialty soil mix, as this type of potting soil mix has been precisely developed to imitate well-draining desert soils. Commercial succulent soil is affordable and accessible online. Here at Planet Desert, we have a specialty-formulated succulent potting mix that contains 5 natural substrates and organic mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your propeller plant to thrive. 

As for fertilizer, the propeller plant doesn't require heavy feeding. You can use a balanced, water-soluble NPK fertilizer formulated. During the growing season (spring), fertilize your plant once a year. It's important not to over-fertilize your propeller plant, as this can cause excessive growth and weaken the plant. Always err on the side of caution and use a little less fertilizer than recommended, especially if your plant is in a small pot. 

Hardiness Zones & More 

The Crassula falcata propeller plant is native to South Africa; it is not cold hardy in general, but it can be grown outside in USDA hardiness zones 9-11. It prefers warm temperatures and can tolerate a range of temperatures between 50°F and 85°F. However, it is important to protect it from frost and freezing temperatures, as they can damage or kill the plant. 

In terms of humidity, the propeller plant is adaptable and can tolerate a range of humidity levels. It can thrive in average indoor humidity, but it also does well in drier conditions. However, it's important to note that excessively dry air can cause the leaves to shrivel, so it's a good idea to provide some moisture through occasional misting or placing a tray of water near the plant to increase humidity. 

Remember, providing the right temperature and humidity conditions can help your propeller plant thrive and stay healthy. 

Give this succulent a try if you're looking for an easy Crassula falcata propeller plant to care for!

Highly recommend! Best in the market bar none
Number of Items: 1
I would like to say this is the perfect mouse and probably the best mouse you could buy on the market and it doesn't even come close. You can modify the mouse however you like with a click on the app. It's truly been a life changing experience with this mouse. With that being said, the perfect mouse does have a few flaws but nothing that would make me not recommend it to anyone only just be aware of these things. 1. It's a vertical mouse, sometimes it gets in the way and your wrist will knock it over, it will happen I promise you. 2. Logitech has a Flow feature meaning you can connect the mouse to three different computers at once if need be, qyeah I'll say it again, three computers connection! Wow! Well I only use it for two computers, the Flow works flawlessly but my gripe is how it sometimes doesn't sync with my Logitech keyboard Ergo K860, unfortunately, the keyboard doesn't come with the same Flow feature meaning I have to depend on the mouse to do it and it doesn't work sometimes and I have to switch between the mouse transition button to the key board transition button which makes for a long headache sometimes. 3. Believe it or not connection is sometimes an issue, it losses Bluetooth connection often and it doesn't matter which computer I use I have the same issues at work and home so I use the dongle for straight connection. Oh wait there are issues with the dongle connection too? Say it ain't so? It is! The issue comes when you have two dongles like me, the keyboard and the mouse, and try to connect both, like I said I have two computers and Logitech will not allow for their ”universal dongle” to connect to two different computers at the same time terrible design flaw. 4. Again, this mouse is incredible but it can sometimes be a little too much incredible, I know, I know but hear me out. The mouse is flawless fast, one quick wrist jerk and that mouse pointer on the screen is jumping all over the place, it's been hard to find a happy medium with the pointer, it's either you adjust to slow it down, making it too slow, or adjust to make it fast, which is too fast, again no happy medium even though there are plenty of settings to toggle with. I believe most vertical mouse tend to be that way anyway only with this mouse you can really tell the difference and that could be a good thing or bad thing depending on your perspective, it's sometimes a bad thing for me on Excel sheets. So the final verdict is this is still the best mouse out there and worth every penny and I would still give this 10 stars if possible, it's been a wonderful experience with this mouse. Again, the negatives are not bad or to make someone not buy it and considering the other features this mouse can do I recommend anyone who works all day on a computer to buy this product I highly recommend it.

If you spend many hours at a computer and are looking for a comfortable, high-quality mouse, I highly recommend the Logitech MX Vertical. It has made a noticeable difference in my daily comfort and productivity.

9.8/10, would buy again!
Number of Items: 1
I bought this mouse in Sept 2020 and it's been absolutely fantastic. Only now, 5 YEARS later, and under extremely heavy usage in both work and gaming pretty much every day, has it started to wear out and develop an issue with the left click button. Most mice don't last anywhere near that long under the same conditions but this thing was a freaking soldier! Pros: Vertical angle - this is the main reason to buy this mouse and I did notice after extended use sessions, significantly less strain on my wrist at the end of the day/night. FYI I also have a wrist wrest on my mouse pad to fully maximize this benefit. The 57 degree angle felt really good to me and didn't inhibit my usage or performance in any way. Build Quality - Solidly built to handle the needs of the most demanding power users. Battery - The battery life lasts a super long time and it warns you when its getting low, plus you can still use it while its plugged it and charging. Charging time is fast and I haven't noticed any significant drop in battery lifetime over many charge/discharge cycles. Sensor - The DPI is high enough for gaming and also variable enough that you can lower it with a single button push to allow a 'normie' to use it when needed. Doesn't require a larger initial movement to begin tracking, making very fine and intermittent adjustments possible. Scroll Wheel - Each single 'tick' of the scroll wheel is soft enough that if you need to scroll a lot you can make it go several at a time easily for faster scrolling. Also its completely silent when scrolling slowly. Coating/Materials - The rubber grip is nice and not difficult to clean with a good spray and a microfiber cloth. The glide coating on the bottom held up very well and it still slides across the pad smooth as butter. The buttons have a matte texture to them that feels premium, which held up fairly well to being worn down. Weight - Well balanced, not too heavy, not too light. It's not adjustable like some high end gaming mice but tbh it doesn't really need adjusting anyway. Bells and Whistles - The multi device sync also works flawlessly and connects to the other devices very quickly when you switch with the button on the bottom. I never got to playing around with 'Flow'. Software - Come free of any bloatware extras and doesn't appear to consume any more system resources than it needs to while running in the background. Cons: The price maybe? You could easily spend more than this on a mouse and end up with an inferior product. ~$90 every five years isn't terribly unreasonable for something that works this well for >8 hours a day every day. If you don't clean it regularly the coating can get a bit oily after a while, and you pretty much have to use a microfiber cloth as nothing else leaves it clean. Sometimes on a hot day it can leave your hand getting a bit sweaty, not because the mouse produces any heat (it doesn't) but because the grippy coating will absorb warmth from your hand and hold on to it for a bit. Maybe the texture on the main buttons could be a little more wear resistant. Eventually I wore off a small fingerpad sized spot on the left click button and that super smooth bit of plastic ends up feeling kind of oily even though its clean. Final thoughts: 9.8/10, would buy again. The only thing I really wish this had was the ability to adjust the vertical angle. After some very long use sessions being able to switch to a slightly shallower angle would help to reduce the eventual strain even further. And if we're shooting for the moon here, I'd love it if you could swap out the outer body to a ventilated/open style body like GravaStar's mice to keep your hand from ever getting sweaty.

Works flawlessly for drafting use...
Color: Black, Style: Wireless, Pattern Name: Mouse
This mouse has been a great upgrade for my setup. The wireless connection is fast and reliable, and I honestly can’t tell the difference from a wired mouse. The sensor is very responsive, and everything feels smooth and precise, especially combined with the Logitech G mouse pad. I actually use this all day at work for drafting, so precision and comfort really matter, and this mouse delivers on both. I’ve even purchased several more for my drafting team, and everyone has been really happy with it. I also like the customizable weight system—you can adjust it to feel just right in your hand. Overall it feels solid, well made, and comfortable for long hours of use.

This is the last mouse you will ever buy
Color: Black, Style: Wireless, Pattern Name: Mouse
Just buy it. What can be said about this mouse that hasn't been said before? This is the perfect mouse, there is no contest. I know it is a bit on the pricier side, but if you need a mouse, just get the cheapest one you can get and start saving to get this one, IT'S THAT GOOD. The mouse glides over any decent mouse pad, you don't need to get a Logitech one. The shape is perfect for all kinds of grips and the weight system is great for customization. The led has different brightness levels, including turning it off completely to save more battery, and the keys are just silent and satisfying to press. Again, this is the best mouse ever, no other mouse will offer a better value for your money than this one. A bit steep, yes, but worth it.
