My little Jade plant. He's so cute in his red flower pot!!





Jade plants are wonderful little plants. They have fat little leaves which the store water in. Which they use for dry spells. They are good beginner plants because they can go awhile without water. They leves will get wrinkly if it gets too dry. They are also easy to propagate just break off a piece and place it in moise soil of a glass of water. New plants will grow from just a single leaf also. If a leaf falls off into the pot just leave it and after awhile a new plant will grow. It takes awhile for a new plant from a leaf though. They like sun also so give them a lot of light. A West window is good for them. Any questions just ask.
