Jade

The Jade Plant, scientifically known as Crassula ovata, is a beloved succulent prized for its thick, glossy, oval-shaped leaves and tree-like form. Its vibrant green foliage, sometimes tinged with red along the edges in bright light, makes it a striking addition to indoor spaces. Over time, it develops a woody trunk, giving it a miniature tree appearance that brings natural structure and beauty to any room.

This hardy houseplant is treasured for both its beauty and its symbolic meaning, often associated with prosperity and good fortune. Its adaptability and ease of care make it ideal for both new and experienced plant owners.

As a slow-growing, long-lived plant, the Jade Plant thrives in containers and is an excellent choice for desks, windowsills, or bright corners of the home. Its resilience and sculptural form allow it to double as a decorative feature and a symbol of longevity.

Care Instructions:

Light Requirements: Prefers bright, indirect to direct light; place near a sunny window for best growth.
Soil Needs: Use a well-draining cactus or succulent mix with sand or perlite.
Watering: Water thoroughly, allowing the soil to dry completely between waterings; reduce frequency in winter.
Humidity: Tolerates average indoor humidity; prefers dry conditions.
Fertilizing: Feed every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer with a diluted cactus/succulent fertilizer.
Pruning: Prune to maintain shape or encourage branching; remove dead leaves as needed.
Repotting: Repot every 2–3 years in spring, or when the plant becomes top-heavy or root-bound.

Please note: This plant comes in its grower’s nursery pot, ready for you to place in your favorite decorative pot at home. The pot in the picture is not included.
