Jade
Jade Plants, also known as Lucky Plants or Friendship Plants, are beautiful and easy to care for. They are often given as gifts as they have been thought to bring good luck to their owners. Jades are succulent plants, which makes them fairly resilient and easy to grow indoors. They have dense formations of thick, waxy leaves and woody stems that can resemble miniature trees. Due to their easy-going nature, Jade plants often live for a long time and can grow as large as three feet or more when kept indoors. If they receive an abundance of light, the plant takes on a bright red border around its vibrant, green leaves.

Plant Care
Jade plants are extremely popular across the world, partially because of their easy care. Unlike most succulents, do not let the soil of this plant dry completely, instead water when the top layer of soil is dry to the touch. To keep a jade dense and full, keep them in a well light area with lots of direct sunlight. Our Cactus & Succulent Soil is a perfect pick when repotting Jade.
