    The small, opposite leaves of Crassula dichotoma are sessile, often widely spaced up the wiry stems.

    The leaf-shape is narrowly lanceolate, obovate to elliptic, pointed or rounded at tip and base. The blades are somewhat flattened, sometimes channelled above, fleshy, brown-green and spotted red-brown along the margins. Leaf dimensions are 5 mm to 15 mm long and 1 mm to 6 mm wide.

    The photo was taken in habitat near Kamieskroon (Frandsen, 2017; Smith, et al, 2017; Le Roux, et al, 2005; Manning and Goldblatt, 1997; iNaturalist).
