Office Jade

12 years ago

3 maybe 4 years ago I started a jade plant at my office from a single leaf. I've been amzed how fast and well it's grown. So far, the only thing I've done was water it.. See pictures.

It's starting to get sizable and I should probably give it some TLC. Fertilizer? New pot? Do the pictures tell you much about the health of the plant? It gets really good sun throughout the day.

thanks

Its a beauty and from a single leaf?!?!?! I think this plant would appreciate alittle more sun,but it looks healthy to me. I would do some pruning in the spring and use the trimmings to make more beautifl jade plants, good job!

It is growing well for the conditions, but we can see that it definitely needs more light. The horizontal growth of the branches and the downward angled leaves indicate the low-light conditions (although it is certainly not anywhere near the worst I've seen!).

Are you able to transition the Jade outdoors for the Summer?
