Jade plants belong in the Crassula family,&nbsp;a large genus of succulent plants.&nbsp;These plants are native to South Africa and Mozambique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They are recognized for their thick, fleshy, shiny, smooth leaves that grow in opposite pairs. Leaves range in color from dark jade green in the shade to red on the edges when exposed to direct or full sunlight. Their branches thicken with age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/succulentplantcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Crassula-Ovata-8-Jade-Plant-820x640.jpg\" alt=\"Jade Plant-Crassula Ovata Care, Propagation, Types and More\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/succulentplantcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Crassula-Ovata-8-Jade-Plant.jpg\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%20300%20300'%3E%3Crect%20width='300'%20height='300'%20style='fill:%23e3e3e3'\/%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" alt=\"Jade Plant-Crassula Ovata Care, Propagation, Types and More\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/succulentplantcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Crassula-Ovata-8-Jade-Plant.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-1\" loading=\"eager\" data-src=\"https:\/\/succulentplantcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Crassula-Ovata-8-Jade-Plant-820x640.jpg.webp\" class=\"eager-load\" data-svg=\"1\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Known to some as money tree, lucky plant, or friendship tree, you can understand the reason for its popularity based on its common names.

If kept indoors, find a bright spot in your home. If you find that the jade is not doing well and appears to be stretching, you need to move it to a brighter location or consider using grow lights to provide adequate lighting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Generally speaking, jade plants, like most succulent plants, need at least 5-6 hours a day of bright sunlight to grow properly. If kept by the window that receives bright intense sun, especially afternoon sun, the leaves might experience sunburn (brown spots) until acclimated to the intense sunlight. To avoid this, gradually increase the amount of intense sun it receives.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Outdoor Sunlight Conditions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Jade plants prefer plenty of sun, but direct sunlight, especially intense afternoon sun, can burn the leaves of the plant. You will see sunburned spots on the leaves (brown spots) when this happens. To prevent this from happening, you can move the plant to a location where it receives plenty of bright morning sun as opposed to afternoon sun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Morning sun is less intense than the afternoon sun and is preferred by most succulents. If you can&rsquo;t move the plant and it receives full afternoon sun, try to provide some shade until it gets used to the intense sun. This can be done by placing it next to a taller plant or tree to provide some shade, or placing a piece of furniture such as a table or chair next to the plant to serve as shade.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/succulentplantcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Crassula-Ovata-Jade-Plant-2.jpg\" alt=\"Crassula Ovata 'Jade Plant' with red leaves from full sun exposure\" title=\"Jade Plant-Crassula Ovata Care, Propagation, Types and More\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/succulentplantcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Crassula-Ovata-Jade-Plant-2.jpg\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/succulentplantcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Crassula-Ovata-Jade-Plant-2.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Crassula Ovata 'Jade Plant' with red leaves from full sun exposure\" title=\"Jade Plant-Crassula Ovata Care, Propagation, Types and More\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/succulentplantcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Crassula-Ovata-Jade-Plant-2.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-2\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" lazyload\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The leaves of this jade plant have turned a reddish hue, especially around the edges due to exposure to full sun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Increase sun exposure slowly to prevent sun damage. Once acclimated to full sun, it should be able to withstand the intense afternoon heat. But even an acclimated mature jade plant can still suffer from sunburn during a heatwave, or when the temperature gets intensely hot over the summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When this happens, it&rsquo;s usually not detrimental to the plant and the plant usually recovers without a problem. The sunburnt leaves will eventually fall off as new leaves grow. Jade plants exposed to bright afternoon sun will have a reddish tint on their leaves, especially the edges of the leaves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Potting Medium<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Jade plants prefer a potting mix that is fast draining. They do not like to sit in wet soil for too long. If the soil stays constantly wet, the plant becomes susceptible to fungus, diseases, and root rot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use a well draining potting mix. You can augment the potting mix by adding pumice or perlite to the potting or cactus mix. I usually use a commercial cactus mix and combine it with equal parts perlite (1:1 ).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can make your own cactus potting mix by adding course sand, pumice or perlite to increase drainage.&nbsp;Please click on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/succulentplantcare.com\/best-soil-and-fertilizer-for-cacti-and-succulents\/\">&ldquo;Best Soil and Fertilizers for Succulents&rdquo;<\/a>&nbsp;for ingredients and ideas on how to make your own succulent potting mix.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Watering<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Proper watering techniques go hand in hand with the right potting mix. Just as the soil needs to be fast draining, jade plants do not like to sit in water or wet soil too long. It is important to have the right potting mix and watering techniques for the plant to thrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a rule of thumb with watering jade plants, water only when the top inch of the soil feeds dry to touch. Wait for the soil to dry out in between waterings. This is largely dependent on the climate you live in and the weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I live in a very dry climate and since my jade plants receive plenty of intense afternoon sun, I water them once every 7-10 days during the summer months, and more during intense heat waves. I cut back on watering during cooler months to once every 10-14 days or so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Watering would differ if you live in a humid and cooler climate. You wouldn&rsquo;t need to water your jade plant as much. I find it is better to err on the side of caution when watering, especially if you are a beginner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jade plants are very forgiving plants. Since they store water in their leaves and trunks, they can go for a long time without water, especially mature jade plants. I forget to water my plants a lot and I start noticing their leaves begin to flatten, meaning their water reserves are starting to run low.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I just give them a good drink and they perk right back up. I also noticed that they love rainwater. Rainwater makes them very happy so I try to collect rainwater whenever we get rain around here, which is not very often.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Watering indoors also differ slightly from outdoors because the temperature and light are more controlled. But the same rule still applies&ndash;water when the top inch of the soil feels dry. You may not need to water as much indoors because the sunlight is not as intense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fertilize<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep in mind that jade plants are not finicky plants. I consider them to be one of the hardiest succulents plants. If the potting mix is fresh, fertilizing is usually not necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the plant has been sitting in the same potting mix for a couple of years without repotting, then you&rsquo;ll need to replenish the nutrients that the plant would otherwise be getting from fresh soil. You can use a standard balanced fertilizer for houseplants or a specialized fertilizer designed for succulents and cacti.&nbsp;Dilute the amount of fertilizer recommended on the package to &frac14; or &frac12; strength.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be wary of overfeeding jade plants, as they are not heavy feeders and do not require that much. It is best to feed during the growing season which is in the spring, summer and fall seasons. Fertilizing about once a month during the growing season is a good place to start. During the active growing season, you can fertilize as often as every watering, with the fertilizer diluted to &frac14; or &frac12; strength.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Decrease fertilizing as the end of growing season approaches around mid-fall.

I have a big jade plant that blooms every year. There is no exact science on how to get them to bloom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Generally, if you keep your plant healthy and happy by providing proper care and nutrients as mentioned above, the plant will naturally bloom when it&rsquo;s ready. To encourage blooms, the plants need to be kept in an environment that mimics their natural habitat. This can be achieved by keeping them cool and dry in the winter months.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/succulentplantcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Crassula-Portulacea-Jade-Plant-3.jpg\" alt=\"Crassula Ovata 'Jade Plant' in bloom with pink flowers\" title=\"Jade Plant-Crassula Ovata Care, Propagation, Types and More\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/succulentplantcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Crassula-Portulacea-Jade-Plant-3.jpg\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/succulentplantcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Crassula-Portulacea-Jade-Plant-3.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Crassula Ovata 'Jade Plant' in bloom with pink flowers\" title=\"Jade Plant-Crassula Ovata Care, Propagation, Types and More\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/succulentplantcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Crassula-Portulacea-Jade-Plant-3.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-3\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" lazyload\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You need to decrease watering the plant to a minimum and only water when the soil is dry but not bone dry. Keep the temperatures cool during the winter months, somewhere between 35-44&#8304;F (1.5-7&#8304;C). I keep mines outdoors all year long, but the weather is mild where I am and these plants can withstand minor frosts here and there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more on this topic, please click on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/succulentplantcare.com\/how-to-get-succulents-and-cacti-to-bloom\/\">&ldquo;How to Get Succulents and Cacti to Bloom&rdquo;<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other care articles specific for Jade Plants<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/succulentplantcare.com\/jade-plants-crassula-ovata-with-wrinkled-leaves\/\">Jade Plants Wrinkled Leaves<\/a> &ndash; <a href=\"https:\/\/succulentplantcare.com\/jade-plant-crassula-ovata-falling-over\/\">Jade Plant Falling Over<\/a> &ndash; <a href=\"https:\/\/succulentplantcare.com\/why-are-my-jade-plant-leaves-turning-yellow-and-falling-off\/\">Jade Plant Leaves Turning Yellow<\/a> &ndash; <a href=\"https:\/\/succulentplantcare.com\/why-are-my-jade-plant-branches-or-leaves-shriveling-or-drooping\/\">Jade Plant Branches\/Leaves Shriveling\/Drooping<\/a> &ndash; <a href=\"https:\/\/succulentplantcare.com\/jade-plant-crassula-ovata-what-you-need-to-know\/\">Jade Plant Care, Propagation and Types<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to prune a top heavy Jade Plant?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Jade plants retain a lot of water mainly in their leaves, when they become top heavy they tend to tumble and make a mess.

(Optional: dip the cuttings in rooting hormone).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 3-Stick the cuttings in a well draining potting mix. You can use cactus soil mixed with perlite or pumice (1:1). Some people like to throw in coarse sand for added drainage. You can either stick the leaf cuttings in soil or lay them flat on the soil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 4-Keep away from direct sunlight. Spray or water the soil every few days or when dry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 5-You will notice roots start to form in about two weeks time. The stem cuttings will be fully rooted in about 6-8 weeks. Tug at the stem and if they do not come off easily from the soil, the stems have rooted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Leaf cuttings take longer because you need to wait for a new plant to sprout and for it to grow bigger. The whole process may take anywhere from 8 weeks to a few months from leaf propagation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 6-Increase sunlight once the plants are established. Decrease watering to once every ten days or so once the plants are mature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&rsquo;ve <a href=\"https:\/\/succulentplantcare.com\/how-to-propagate-jade-details-on-soil-sun-water-info\/\">propagated jade plants<\/a> in different ways, from leaves, stem cuttings, even from water propagation.
