Frequently bought together

Total:

The Jade Plant (Crassula ovata) is one of the most popular and forgiving succulents, grown for its thick, glossy, oval leaves and sturdy, tree-like branching habit. Native to South Africa, it is widely regarded as a symbol of good luck and prosperity, making it a favourite gift and Vastu plant in Indian homes. It stores water in its fleshy leaves, so it tolerates neglect and infrequent watering, thriving on bright windowsills, balconies and patios. Slow-growing and very long-lived, mature plants can be shaped into attractive bonsai-like specimens. Mildly toxic if eaten, so keep it away from curious pets.

Uses

A classic indoor and balcony succulent for sunny windowsills, desks and patios; popular as a good-luck gift and trained into attractive bonsai-style specimens.

Growing tips

Grow in a gritty, fast-draining mix and water sparingly, especially during the Indian monsoon when overwatering causes rot. Give it 4-6 hours of bright light and protect from heavy rain to keep the foliage firm and glossy.

Jade Plant Care

The Jade Plant (Crassula ovata) is a hardy succulent that thrives on bright, indirect light and needs watering only when the soil has dried out fully. It stores water in its thick, glossy leaves, so it copes well with occasional neglect and prefers a free-draining, gritty potting mix. Feed lightly during the growing season and keep it away from cold draughts to encourage its plump, tree-like growth.

Where to Place Your Jade Plant

Jade Plants do best on a sunny windowsill, a bright balcony edge, or a well-lit desk where they get several hours of light each day. Their compact, sculptural shape suits indoor spaces, while the 7 inch hanging option works beautifully in a bright corner or near a window for a trailing display. Rotate the pot occasionally so the plant grows evenly rather than leaning towards the light.

Jade Plant Benefits & Uses

As a low-maintenance succulent, the Jade Plant is ideal for beginners, busy homes, and offices that need greenery without fussy upkeep. It is a popular choice as a long-lived houseplant and is often kept as a symbol of prosperity and good fortune in Indian homes. Its evergreen leaves and easy propagation make it a rewarding plant to grow and share as gifts.

Frequently asked questions

How often should I water a Jade Plant?
Water only when the soil has dried out, soaking thoroughly and then letting it dry again. Water much less in winter and during the humid monsoon to prevent rot.
How much light does it need?
It loves bright light and does best with four to six hours of sun. A sunny windowsill or balcony keeps it compact with firm, colourful leaves.
Is the Jade Plant safe for pets?
No, it is mildly toxic to cats and dogs if eaten and can cause vomiting and lethargy. Keep it out of reach of pets.
How do I propagate it?
Very easily. Let a leaf or stem cutting callus for a day or two, then place it on or in dry succulent mix; it will root within a few weeks.
Why are the leaves wrinkling or dropping?
Shrivelled leaves often mean under-watering, while sudden leaf drop usually signals overwatering or root rot. Adjust watering and check the roots.
Can I grow it indoors?
Yes, it is a great indoor succulent provided it gets a bright spot with several hours of light; otherwise it grows leggy and weak.
Does it flower?
Mature, well-lit plants can produce clusters of small white to pink star-shaped flowers in winter, though indoor plants flower less reliably.
What soil should I use?
Use a gritty, fast-draining cactus or succulent mix. Heavy, moisture-retentive soil leads to root rot in this water-storing plant.
Why are the leaves turning red at the edges?
Reddish leaf edges are usually a healthy response to strong sun and are not harmful. Move it to slightly softer light if you prefer fully green leaves.
What fertilizer should I use?
Feed with a diluted succulent or balanced fertilizer two to three times during the growing season; avoid feeding in winter.
