Repotted it into a 5gal bucket because large pots are pricyyyy. This tree is about 5 years old and has made hundreds of props that inhabit friend’s houses around town.
That’s the healthiest looking jade I’ve ever seen!
Thank you! I water it every 6 weeks or so with rainwater, seems to love the chemistry.
I’m in the process of bringing inside my couple big jades. Yours is so happy! Great work through and through, that takes a long time. Beautiful!
oh my god it’s so vibrant!! wow that looks absolutely ✨️gorgeous💖
can’t tell you how jelly I am
Wow! Hard to imagine mine being that big but I suppose I’ll see in a couple years when it turns 5. 😊
Don’t be afraid to cut chunks out, pruning definitely helps the growth and silhouette of the bastards.
I had mine outside over the summer and some squirrels starting chomping on the leaves 😑 it’s only about a year old but the majority of new growth has teeth marks.
I just have it a generous hair cut yesterday and stuck a ton of teeth free cuttings in the surrounding soil. Here’s hoping I can get one as pretty as yours!
Wow!
Mine is a single 3 inch crooked twig with 5 leaves on it, been like that for a couple years, it doesnt look particularly ill or anything, seems perfectly happy as it is, just doesnt want to grow.
I would say to give it more light, but that’s a complete guess on my part
You can wrap rope around the bucket to make it look nice on the cheap. Just takes rope and a little glue.
I thought about that, but I water from the bottom up and this sits nicely in my watering bucket.
I gotcha. How heavy is that thing, though?!
At least 40lbs with the soil. It’s a bit top heavy now so I plan on transplanting it into a very low and wilde pot eventually.
