The variegated watch chain, also known as ‘Crassula lycopodioides variegata’, is a low-maintenance, drought-tolerant succulent known for its intricate, chain-like stems and soft variegated coloring.
This plant stands out due to its unusual texture, resembling delicate, interwoven links or a miniature cascading chain. It grows well in containers, hanging planters, or as part of mixed succulent arrangements.
Native to South Africa and Namibia, the plant’s most distinctive feature is its densely packed, tiny leaves that tightly cover thin stems, creating a soft, textured, almost moss-like appearance.
In the variegated variety, these stems display subtle color variations, often shifting between green, yellow, and cream tones depending on light exposure.
As it grows, the stems may trail or spread outward, making it suitable for both upright and cascading displays.
The variegated watch chain succulent remains relatively small, typically growing up to 12 inches tall, with a spreading or trailing habit that can extend further over time.
Under ideal conditions, it may produce tiny, pale yellow or greenish flowers, usually in spring or summer. While the flowers are not particularly showy, they can attract small pollinators such as bees when the plant is grown outdoors.
When it comes to care, this Crassula plant is simple but requires attention to drainage and light. It thrives in well-draining, sandy, specialized succulent soil that prevents excess moisture
buildup. Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings, as overwatering can quickly lead to rot.
Indoors, it prefers temperatures between 65°F and 80°F and bright, indirect to direct light for several hours daily.
Outdoors, it grows best in USDA zones 9–11, where it can receive full to partial sun. It tolerates low humidity and prefers a light NPK feeding once a year in spring with a 5-10-5 ratio.
This Crassula succulent benefits from occasional pruning to maintain shape and encourage fuller growth.
Final Thoughts
Overall, the variegated watch chain (Crassula lycopodioides variegata) is a fascinating and low-maintenance succulent that combines unusual form with practical care needs. Its intricate structure and textural appeal set it apart from more common succulents. Its ability to grow in compact spaces, trail elegantly, and display subtle variegation gives it a refined, almost artistic quality. It is especially valued in modern indoor decor and succulent collections for its distinctive appearance.

This is the one
Format: Paperback
If you read one book this year about how to deal with conflict, this is the one. His language is crisp, his examples simple to understand, his reasoning is easy to follow. Best of all, he interprets Dr. King's Philosophy of Nonviolence through his own, hard-won experience with organizing in Oakland, CA, Occupy Wall Street and myriad other struggles. All that experience has taught him that Dr. King was right to focus on relationship building. Kazu asks the hard questions, toughs out the answers, learns from myriad mistakes and shares his hard-won lessons with us. He also references some great resources.
I gave this book 5 stars. Normally I would have awarded 4 stars, because there are some typos sprinkled throughout the book. However, I added back that star because the book is so very well-written, absolutely authentic to the Kingian Nonviolence curriculum, and urgently useful NOW. Kingian Nonviolence (not non-violence) is more useful and effective than any other strategy, for the long-term, and often for the short term as well. Let's build this world of Beloved Community. Thank you Kazu, Dr. Lafayette, and Dr. King, for giving us a head start.

The Inner Game of World Changing
Format: Kindle
This book bridges the gap between activism and spirituality, making the argument that the world will never change for the better in a lasting way without both working together. Yes, the systems of injustice must be dismantled, but it will be impossible to build new systems that work for all without the inner foundations spelled out in this book. Yes, we need to love one another, but we also need to deal with the material realities of injustice and oppression. Without the principles laid out in this book, we are left with a toxic culture of shaming and ineffectual anger on the side of the activists and a loving but disconnected-from-reality culture on the side of the spiritual while the violence-fueled industrial-growth complex goes on wreaking its destruction. If you despair of things ever changing for the better, read this book. It's THE way forward.

This is a useful and inspiring book
Format: Kindle
In a humble and clear way, the author uses his own life experience to define what nonviolence is and isnt and shows how it can be an entire worldview.
