This unique succulent plant has also been called Red Flames or Campfire Plant.  
It has bright, lime green leaves with flaming orange red tips.  Sometimes the entire plant turns red.
This crassula gets tiny white flowers on upright, 6 to 8 inch stalks in early spring. 
When grown in shade, the leaves are bright apple green most of the year.
These crassula succulent plants can take full sun to light shade, love heat and are easy to root and grow.  

They will change color depending on the amount of sunlight they get.  

The leaves on this succulent can either appear as bright apple green or flaming red.  They are drought tolerant and only want light watering.
