Jade Question for Oksana

Hi Oksana, down near the end of your jade article, beside a photo of jade 'Gargoyle' (which is also 'Denethor' if I'm not mistaken), there is a picture of a jade which reads like 'Drakon', I don't know if that's the same as Dragon, but I was wondering, what is that plant? Is it a Crassula ovata or C. arborescens, or something else? The only crassula I can find with a similar name on Google is a Crassula multicava variety.

Hi Marguerite!

It's my Obliqua monstrosa My Siberian Jade trees

It was usual little Obliqua. Later the strange leaves began to grow in the winter. Now it looks like this

It grows up only with one tip, as pine. More than 5 leaves never grows up on the branches. Then the branch is degraded, new leaves stop growing on it.

So I can't cut any branch for propagation.

Oksana.

How absolutely strange, Oksana. Thank you for the explanation. So it's always going to be unique ! And you called it Dragon? Or is that something else in Russian?

Ignore the last question, please. I saw your posts on Old Stumpy's thread :)
