Horticultural Description

This miniature version of the common Jade plant requires very little maintenance. It grows best under full sun and produces pink star shaped flowers in the fall and spring. Hardy to zone 10.

🌿 Jen’s Bench Notes:

“In our Lake Erie greenhouses, this cultivar produces its most vibrant foliage when given consistent morning light and steady warmth. When your order arrives, allow it to settle for 24 hours in indirect light before potting up into fresh, airy potting mix.”

— Jen Webber, Lead Horticulturist
