7 Easy Jade Plant Care Indoors

Jade plant care is easy because jades don’t need much attention. They thrive on neglect and will actually grow better if you forget about them for a little while. You’ll want to water your jade every two weeks or so, but only when the soil gets dry – it’s all too common for jades to be overwatered. The jade plant is a succulent that requires minimal care. It can be grown in low-lit areas and watered once or twice per week depending on the environment it’s living in. There are many variations of jade plants; most have green leaves, but some varieties will turn red when exposed to more light. The jade plant is often called the “money tree” in Asian culture because its long, green leaves resemble a stack of coins. There are jade plants with smaller leaves and thicker stems that have more coin-like coloration on them. The jade plant can be found all over Asia, but its native home is Central America.-
