Seems that it's just branching that way?

Yes, but I didn't think this was normal. The images on the internet for the plant show it upright, not leaning over.

Can you take a pic from the other side? My first impression is that it's top-heavy, and the branches aren't strong enough to support all the growth at the top. One route would be to chop it, leave the trunk in the ground, and root the branches as new plants. Alternatively, you could prune the tops tho lighten the weight, but that may or may not make a difference in how the branches are now. BUT I may change my opinion once I see the other side of the plant!

Amy--thank you for your interest. Maybe you are right about the weight. As I said, the branches are firm, not limp.

OK, here are a couple more shots. This one is around the other side with the leaves coming towards you.

Could overwatering cause the plant to take in too much and cause "overweight?" I could cut back watering in that area which has been 1x a week, temps in hi 70's to lo 90's.

The "blue fingers" are not leaning; I moved them for the picture. Our sun comes from the south, but the plant is actually leaning away from the south.

To dry???

Nothing else in the garden looks stressed from being too dry. Looks like heavy branches to me. They hold onto a lot of water for dry spells. And this looks to be growing faster than the branches can harden off to support it. I would prune off about 4-6 inches of branch and see how it's responding come Autumn.

In nature, long heavy branches of jade plants will bend until touching the ground, then begin rooting at that point.

Today I'll dig down to see if soil seems overly wet or dry. If all seems ok, I'll take your suggestion breathnez and trim the longest branches to balance it a bit.

Also need to get the sedum trimmed. That stuff grows!

Edited: did surgery this morning. It looks much better.

Thanks everyone.
