Care guide:

- Water: Water the plant sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings. It is best to water from the bottom to prevent water from accumulating on the leaves.
- Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix specifically formulated for succulents.
- Temperature: Keep the plant in a warm environment, ideally between 18-24°C.
- Fertilizer: Feed the plant with a succulent fertilizer diluted to half-strength once a month during the growing season (spring and summer).
- Pruning: Prune dead or damaged leaves to encourage new growth and maintain a compact shape. Propagate by planting the leaf cuttings in moist soil.
- Pests: Keep an eye out for aphids and mealybugs, which are common pests that can infest Crassula multicava. Treat infestations with insecticidal soap or neem oil.

Overall, Crassula multicava is a beautiful and easy-to-care-for succulent that will thrive in a well-lit indoor environment or as a part of a succulent garden outdoors.
