Dwarf Jade Plant

The dwarf jade is a succulent shrub that stores water in its thick little leaves, so it shrugs off busy weeks and forgotten waterings. It branches readily, making it a favorite for desks and windowsills and a popular starter plant for anyone curious about bonsai-style pruning.

Dwarf Jade Plant care at a glance

• Light: Bright light with a few hours of direct sun keeps it compact and colorful.
• Water: Let the soil dry out almost completely, then water deeply. Water even less in winter.
• Soil: Use a fast-draining cactus and succulent mix in a pot with drainage holes.
• Pruning: Snip leggy stems in spring or summer; the cuttings root easily in dry soil.
