Aveo, does it look like this?
{{gwi:645950}}

Thanks Puglvr...I am sending you the pics. Any hints on how to grow it...as you can see, it is a sad jade:(

YES!!!! Thats it! It use to look that beautiful to. But now it is a sad looking jade. Any ideas on growing this one? What is she called???

Silver Dollar Jade I think? I don't grow that one, so I can't help, sorry! Good luck!

Yes, indeed!

Crassula arborescens - commonly called The Silver Dollar Jade.

I grow this one, and I've propagated two cuttings. It's a very nice Crassula.
I propagated the cuttings in a mix of bark, pumice, gravel grit, and perlite.
My main plant is potted in nearly pure Pumice, in a shallow round pot.

What are its current conditions like?
Indoors/outdoors?
What size container?
What kind of mix?
How often watered?

Josh I can kiss you for naming her plant. I was hoping someone would step up to the plate and help her, you also corrected the name. Has anyone told her yet how to save it. NOrma

MeyerMike, thank you for the picture!...... Greenman. That is the name I was sold that plant as, Crassula Arborescens. A 'RARE' Jade on EBay. It is in 'The Best Cactus Soil' made. That I bought on EBay, like $10 for a flat rate box of maybe 8 quarts.
All my stapelias and cactus took off when i planted them into it. That is nearly all pumice and perlite and some other grit material. All my older stapelias are growing in it, I need to buy more, My newer cutting/plants are in plain old 'cactus soil mix' from Miracle Grow. It is not as good as that cactus soil I got on EBay at all, but it is all i can find locally. It is in a 6in pot, outside,full sun till about 10-11am,. Frankly I water it rarely, and fertilizer very lightly. But now we are in for nearly 4-6 days of light to pouring constant rain! Should I bring it in? It is really ragged looking. Maybe only 2-3 leaves at the tips of crooked stems. Is there a place online that I can find this Jade to get a new one?

Thank you for the offer 'Puglvr',I got that picture on here as I was getting to send mine to you, and it was a lot easier to answer that question.

Aveo,
I find that my Crassula arborescens is a thirsty plant...especially with those thick leaves.
Are the leaves nice and firm, or are they soft, kind of leathery?

Let it get rain-watered, then bring it out of the rain. Generally, if the temps are over 55F,
I feel comfortable leaving my plants outside.

Your pumice, perlite, grit mix sounds like a good mix.

Josh

Well Greenman, the few leaves it has are always full and firm, but it is very sad looking, all stem and 2-3 leaves at the tips. We are now under a storm watch here in Ft.Lauderdale till Thurs. 4-8in of rain...'Nicole' by morning. The weathermen are all excited! It will get plenty of rain,and when it doesnt get it, I water it. But for the next few days it will be nice and wet. Unless we really DO get 8in of rain...that usually means we are going to get 2in.
At least it isnt a hurricane or a Tropical Storm...and shouldnt make it to Tropical Storm strength. They soil it is in, is the great cactus soil I got on EBay,it hold little water,drains great. I might have to start over with a new plant...on EBay, I see 3 for $6 each in a 4in pot....looks nice and BIG. Might buy one and start over.

Most Crassula are Winter growers, they do not like the heat and should be watered very little or none July-August and Sept. It will perk up as soon as it settle into the new soil, and pot. This species grows slower then many others, and will not grow as large as Crassula ovata. I'm also in zone 9-10 depending on the year, I have never had problems with mine, they don't seem to attract insects of any kind. Norma

Puglvr1....i have emailed you just now,....this is my 4th try, the other 3 have all come back as undeliverable. I am so desperate to get these 2 stapelia/huernia/orbeas identified,I have like 4 others, but the pics are so big, I can only email like 2 at most. I have them set as small as possible. I tried to post them here, but I had NO luck at all. I was trying to take you up on your offer to post them for me, or maybe you know what they are. I hope if you dont get the 4th email, you will read THIS post, and email me back or post me back. I have other ones that maybe yuo might want as cuttings,or rooted plants. If I can send the pics of the other 3-4 that I dont have the names of. They all got lost in Hurricane Wilma. Hope THIS works.

Aveo,

If you're looking to ID Asclepiads, try a search for 'Stapeliads, Orchids of the Succulent World' something like that, or see if maybe it's still linked through the 'Cactus Mall'.

Had lots of pix of the plant families in that group, might help you start on the IDs, matching blooms, etc.

Aveo, I just checked my email and I did get "one" email from you only...If you sent other emails before I never got them...sorry! Only this last one you just sent. But I don't see any pictures on the email. My offer still stands if you send them to me I will do my best to post it here for you.

I did reply back so send it on that email...
