Yes, another A.Cooperi. I agree that it's good about the hobby that there are no 'secrets' and everyone is happy to help. Everyone grows their plants in different ways so even there there's no 'secrets', there's still no 'right way' of doing things.

When I grew prize veg, no one one shared any info. It was all secretive. With this hobby everyone is quite willing to share all info with everyone. I do appreciate it too.

Crassula has opposite pairs of leaves and they kind of hug the stem (hopefully someone will insert proper botanical terms here), like on this photograph:
