Crassula rubricaulis is a succulent plant native to the coastal mountains of the Eastern Cape and Western Cape of South Africa. It is a small (30-50 cm), rounded, branching, perennial shrub, with smooth, red-brown stems and fleshy, succulent leaves, which are a minimum of 2 mm in thickness. It produces large numbers of white, star-shaped flowers in the middle and late Summer. It is a close relative of the species Crassula dejecta, which also inhabits the mountains of the south western Cape. The Red-stem Crassula occurs around the Riviersonderend and Langeberg mountains in the west, in the coastal rocky mountain shrub around Knysna and as far east as Port Elizabeth.
