Growing Guide
Place in a bright position with plenty of natural light. The Jade Plant thrives in bright indirect light and will also tolerate several hours of gentle direct sun each day.
Allow the compost to dry thoroughly between waterings and reduce watering during winter when growth naturally slows. Always grow in a pot with good drainage and avoid leaving the compost wet for prolonged periods.
Why We Love It
The Jade Plant is a long-lived houseplant with timeless appeal. Its sculptural branching habit and glossy foliage become more impressive as it matures, making it an excellent choice for both first-time and experienced plant owners.
Indoor Placement
Ideal for bright living rooms, home offices, conservatories and sunny windowsills. Position where it receives plenty of natural light and keep away from cold draughts.
Good to Know
This succulent is naturally drought tolerant thanks to its water-storing leaves. It is better to allow the compost to dry between waterings than to keep it constantly moist.
