See the Jade FAQ below. Some great tips there. Give it the brightest light possible...preferably sun.

Dear Sylvia,

Welcome aboard! Fabulous people have written wonderful, wise and warm words on this plant (properly called Crassula ovata). Just do a search at this forum using its scientific name or 'jade' and you'll have lots of information at your disposal.

Hi, Sylvia!
Would you mind posting a picture of your Jade?
Also, could you post a picture of some of the soil it's in?
Thanks!

Josh

Oh yes....

Some of the best advice ever coined for succulent plants (your Crassula ovata is one fine example) concerns when to water:

'When in doubt, don't.'

Thanks!

Dear Sylvia!!!!!Dear Sylvia??? (Oh My!)I'm so glad you didn't ask that question a week ago. There's no hiney appetite left, everyone had a chunk of mine and I guess they're still full. You are a sweetheart though. I will forward some e-mails to you that I got from Norma, she's the one person here who really knows about jades. Some folks assume that if you have a jade it must be crassula ovata, probably because they know how to spell that one, mine isn't ovata either, (but don't tell anyone, we don't want to burst any bubbles). I have some cuttings for you, whenever you'd like to get together. Happy Gardening! Cheryl

Norma knows her stuff, alright!
We're very lucky to have her on Board.

Hi girls, I see we all wandered over from Texas.
We went to Cactus King after the Mercer trade last weekend & I didn't get an id on one of the plants I bought so came here for a look. I was like a kid in a candy store. You know how much I like prickly plants. Too bad the truck was already full, I stuffed as much in there as I could. Jim even found a plant for bonsai!
Tally HO!
