Common Names:
Jade Plant
Plant Category:
Succulent
Plant/Product Description:
Crassula ovata, commonly known as the Jade Plant, is a popular and hardy succulent that features thick, fleshy, oval-shaped leaves arranged on stout, woody stems. The leaves are a rich green and have a smooth, glossy texture, which gives the plant its classic appearance. As it matures, Crassula ovata forms a small, tree-like structure with a thick trunk, making it a perfect choice for container gardening or as a houseplant. In the winter months, it produces small, star-shaped pink or white flowers that add a touch of color to its sturdy form. Jade Plants are prized for their ease of care and longevity, making them an excellent addition to any collection.
Plant Care Notes:
- Sunlight: Prefers bright, indirect light to full sun. Full sun encourages compact growth and enhances the leaf color.
- Watering: Water thoroughly when the soil is dry to the touch. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings to prevent root rot.
- Soil: Requires a well-draining cactus or succulent mix with added perlite or pumice for optimal drainage.
- Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 70°F and 85°F (21°C to 29°C). It is not frost-tolerant and should be protected from freezing temperatures.
- Dormancy: Crassula ovata is generally winter dormant, meaning it requires less water and growth slows during the cooler months.
- Propagation: Easily propagated by leaf or stem cuttings. Allow the cut ends to callous before replanting in well-draining soil.
- Pests: Generally pest-resistant but may occasionally attract mealybugs or aphids. Regular inspections help maintain plant health.
Toxicity:
Crassula ovata is non-toxic to humans and pets, making it a safe addition to homes and gardens.
