Help? Light Green Jade

8 years ago

Firstly, it definitely is overdue repotting, I know! Is it unhealthy to be such a viabrant green? It has had no leaves drop and all are very firm. Should I be worried? Thank you in advance and sorry for the silly question.

Looks perfectly happy to me.
They can turn almost fully yellow under strong light and heat, and are still just fine.
Low light will turn them deeper green.
The red rims around some of your leaves show they're getting some direct sunlight, so the plant is likely adjusting to these conditions and lightening up a bit.

Thank you so much! Google was giving me mixed messages so this is absolutely fantastic it's not unwell. The heatwave over here seems to be ending so he'll probably change back to dark green haha.

Thank you again, much appreciated.

It is interesting how different color of the leaves could be in same light. Agree with Matt about reddish rims :) It may have been in lower light before (older leaves are spaced bit far apart), but new growth looks more compact.

Looks like it is still in peat?

It definitely was in lower light for a good while. It was my first succulent so a lot of experimenting/learning happened to them. That is also the reason of why I assumed it might of finally got sick of my nonsense haha

Some are just a lighter green. These two have been side by side for the past year.
