Jade Plants

Jade Plants, also known as Lucky Plants or Friendship Plants, are beautiful and easy to care for. They are often given as gifts as they are thought to bring good luck to their owners. Jades are succulent plants, which makes them resilient and easy to grow indoors. They have dense formations of thick, waxy leaves and woody stems that can resemble miniature trees. If they receive an abundance of light, the plant takes on a bright red border around its vibrant, green leaves.

Varieties: Ovata Horntree Jade, Variegated Jade, Green

Lighting: Plants that require medium to high light will grow best in sunny spots where they can receive filtered or direct sunlight. They make the perfect plants for any well-lit room in your house.

Irrigation: Allow the soil to mostly dry between thorough irrigations. Water until liquid runs from drainage holes at the bottom of the pot and discard excess water. Do not allow your plant to sit in standing water as it will lead to root rot.

Humidity: Jade plants do not require additional humidity. They prefer a dry environment.

Fertilizer: Regular applications of a slow-release fertilizer during the growing season (Spring and Summer).
