Rippled jade plant?

7 years ago

last modified: 7 years ago

My mom bought me this plant (I think it’s a rippled jade correct me if I’m wrong) and it seemed to be in bad condition. I’m wondering if I should be concerned with this scaling at the bottom of the stem? She got it from Walmart and I know that my location doesn’t do a good job with maintaining their plants.

Hi Lea. If you included an image it didn’t come through.

Can you post a photo? Jades also have stems that become woody over time, so that could possibly be the scale that you're seeing
