DESCRIPTION

The Crassula Ovata, commonly known as the Jade Plant, is a popular succulent native to South Africa and Mozambique. Belonging to the Crassulaceae family, this plant is highly favored for its easy care and attractive, thick, glossy leaves that resemble jade stones. The Jade Plant thrives in bright, indirect light but can also tolerate full sun. In Singapore's tropical climate, it should be watered moderately, allowing the soil to dry out between watering, typically every 10-14 days. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so it’s essential to ensure proper drainage and avoid waterlogging. The Jade Plant dislikes being kept in constantly moist soil and prefers a well-draining potting mix. It is not pet-friendly, as ingestion can be toxic to animals. With its hardy nature and minimal care requirements, the Jade Plant is an excellent choice for both beginner and seasoned plant enthusiasts.
