The Jade tree<\/strong> is a succulent plant that is very easy to grow, with small, rounded and fleshy leaves. Let’s find out how to grow it and how to care for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crassula ovata<\/em>  is the botanical name of the  jade tree <\/strong>  or money tree plant. It is a tender  evergreen succulent<\/strong>  , grown primarily as a houseplant. It is characterized by its rounded, fleshy, shiny, jade-green leaves, which can develop a red tint on the edges if the plant is grown in a very bright location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to grow jade tree<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The jade tree is a   houseplant<\/strong>  that needs a lot of light and prefers a southern or western exposure. It can be moved outside to a patio when the  weather is warm and sunny in the summer<\/strong>  , but be sure to bring it inside before the weather turns cold in early fall. They need a few hours of direct sun each day to grow healthy. The succulent tolerates temperatures up to 10\u00b0C in winter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To make the jade plant grow, in addition to light, it should be watered only when the first  centimeters of compost are dry<\/strong>  . It should be transplanted every few years, preferably in spring. And in winter it needs much less water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ideal soil for the Jade tree should be a  well-drained, peat-free compost,<\/strong>  specific for succulent plants, or another soil-based soil with the addition of sand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

propagate a jade tree<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are two ways to  propagate a jade tree<\/strong>  . The easiest way is to take stem cuttings. That is how:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • You need scissors or scissors to cut a section of the stem, which should have at least two nodes,<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • We peel off the leaves from the bottom of the cut, leaving some on the top,<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • We put it in water and let it develop roots, after which we place the stem in a pot with succulent compost or multipurpose compost without peat and perlite,<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • let’s water well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    The second method of jade plant propagation involves  leaf cuttings<\/strong>  , but this is a slower process and the plants will be smaller. That is how:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • we gently take some young leaves of the plant,<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • We put them in a warm and dry place for a few days so that the cut ends harden,<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • then we put the leaves upright in a container with compost and water<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • At this point, the plants should begin to form roots within a few weeks, after which they should be transferred to small individual pots.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Jade Tree Growth: Most Common Problems<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      If you notice that your jade tree has  red edges<\/strong>  on its leaves, don’t worry, because they only appear when the plant is exposed to too high light levels. But in the case of   yellow leaves<\/strong>  , however, it means that they are probably due to too much water. In this case, the advice is to reduce watering and not let the plant remain in too wet compost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      As for older leaves, they will wither and fall naturally, but if many of them are falling off, it is a sign that  the plant is stressed<\/strong>  . Has it moved to a different location? Was it watered too much or too little? These two factors must be considered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The Jade tree can also be a victim of   the foliage mealybug<\/strong>  . These are insects that look like white, fluffy spots on the underside of leaves. These should be removed by wiping the leaves with a damp cloth or cotton wool soaked in an insecticide containing  fatty acids or vegetable oils. <\/strong> The plant can also be attacked by  mites<\/strong>  : in this case we can notice if the stems and leaves are covered with a fine spider web. Again, the problem should be solved with a spray containing fatty acids or vegetable oils.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
