What is the plant

Crassula 'Blue Bird' is very similar to one of its parents, Crassula ovata (jade plant), in growth habit and leaf shape. In the Blue Bird jade plant, however, the leaves have a distinctive bluish cast that forms a nice background for the pink-and-white flowers that cover the plant in mid-winter.

Crassula ovata, better known as "jade plant", "lucky plant" or "money tree", is an extremely popular, easy to care for house plant. It is believed to bring wealth and good luck to owners and is often given as housewarming gifts.
