Taxon
Crassula ovata 'Gollum'
Common name:
E.T.'s fingers, Gollum jade, Hobbit's pipe jade, Trumpet jade plant
Family:
Crassulaceae (Sedum)
Life form:
Succulent plant
Comments:
This is a similar cultivar to the earlier Jade cultivar “Hobbit” but where “Hobbit” leaves are curled back around, while the cultivar “Gollum” has leaves that are nearly tubular and appear to be tipped with a suction cup reminiscent of the J.R.R. Tolkien character by the same name.
