Crassula ovata Baby Jade Plant
Succulent houseplants are popular plants for window sills, brighten desks and other indoor spaces where you can show them off. Great for weddings! Protect from frost.
Description:
Baby Jade makes an ideal house plant as they can cope with dry conditions and can survive being neglected. Crassula ovata plants need bright light with some direct sunlight. A sunny windowsill will be an ideal position for these plants. They will not flower without sunlight and inadequate light will cause developing spindly growth. Easy to grow in a container, best in full sun but will tolerate part sun. It needs well-drained soil. Water regularly from spring to autumn and allow the soil to dry out before watering again. During the winter months, water only enough to keep the leaves from shriveling. The most common reason for failure is overwatering.
Succulents are FAR more likely to survive under-watering than over-watering. The thick fleshy leaves will appear wilted and a bit “under-full” when they need water.
Perfect as a houseplant.
