Introducing the variegated jade plant, also known as Crassula ovata 'variegata, a vibrant member of the Crassula genus. Native to South Africa, it has several other common names such as; variegated money tree, Crassula ovata Tricolor, Crassula Argentea variegated, and Tricolor jade. 

The crassula ovata variegata is an elegantly branched shrub with attractive green foliage striped, thick, fleshy spoon-shaped leaves with creamy-white or pale yellow patterns that turn pink in the sun. If given the proper care, your variegated jade crassula can live for up to 70 years. Although it grows slowly, adding only two inches to its height each year, this variegated jade plant can grow to a maximum height of three to six feet and 3 feet wide. 

The flowers of the variegated jade plant are small and star-shaped and bloom in showy clusters from late winter to early spring. The overall appearance of your Crassula ovata variegata is delicately enhanced by these star-shaped flowers, which are usually white with pink overtones. Although they rarely bloom indoors, the green and white variegated leaves of this variegated jade are attractive. 

This variegated Jade plant is a Chinese good luck plant because of its coin-shaped broad leaves, which symbolize wealth and fortune. Imagine adding a rare and beautiful Crassula jade plant to your collection that develops into a woody, branching shrub that makes an excellent large bonsai tree. 

When and How to Water Your Variegated Jade Plant  

The Variegated Jade Plant has low watering needs and is considered drought-tolerant. It prefers infrequent watering rather than being consistently moist. It's critical to let the soil dry out in between waterings because overwatering can cause root rot. A good rule of thumb is to hold off on watering again until the top inch of soil has dried out. Remember, it's always better to underwater than to overwater your Crassula ovata variegata plant. So, be sure to check the soil moisture before reaching for that watering can! 

When watering, it's important to use a well-draining soil mix to prevent water from sitting in the pot and causing root issues. Make sure the pot has drainage holes to allow excess water to drain. During the winter months or when the plant is in a dormant phase, you can reduce watering frequency even further. It's always a good idea to observe your plant and adjust the watering schedule based on its specific needs and the conditions in your environment. 

By providing the right amount of water, you can help your Variegated Jade Plant thrive and maintain its beautiful appearance. 

Light Requirements - Where to Place Your Jade Plant 

The Variegated Jade Plant thrives in bright, full sunlight to partial shade for at least 4-6 hours daily. It prefers a spot near a window where it can receive plenty of bright, filtered sunlight throughout the day. Under bright sunlight, bright red margins appear on leaves that are up to 2 inches long. However, it's important to protect your Crassula ovata variegata plant from direct sunlight for extended periods, especially during the hot afternoon hours, as it can scorch the leaves. 

If you notice that the leaves of your Variegated Jade Plant are turning pale or yellowish, it may be an indication that it's not receiving enough bright light. On the other hand, if the leaves start to appear sunburned or develop brown spots, they might be getting too much direct sunlight. Finding the right balance is key to keeping your variegated jade happy and healthy. 

If you don't have access to bright, indirect light, you can also grow the Variegated Jade Plant under fluorescent lights. This can be a great alternative for indoor spaces with limited natural light. Just make sure to keep the lights on for around 12-14 hours a day to mimic the variegated jade plant Crassula Ovata Variegata natural light cycle. 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

The Variegated Jade Plant prefers well-draining soil with soil ph 5.6 -6.5 that allows excess water to escape. A good mix for this plant is a combination of cactus soil and perlite, which provides the right balance of moisture retention and drainage. This type of soil helps prevent overwatering and root rot, which can be detrimental to the plant's health. Instead, make or buy a well-draining potting mix, or ideally use our specialized potting succulent mix that contains 5 natural substrates and mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your variegated jade succulent to thrive. 

When it comes to fertilizers, organic fertilizers with an equal mixture of 5-10-5 (NPK) also last longer and keep your soil alive by adding other beneficial compounds and microbes that encourage plant health and nutrient absorption. So, skip those harsh chemicals and give your succulent some love with some awesome organic fertilizer! 

During the growing season, which is typically spring you can fertilize your jade plant variegated Crassula once a year. You can stop fertilizing completely during the dormant season. 

Remember, it's always important to follow the instructions on the fertilizer packaging and avoid over-fertilizing, as it can lead to leaf burn or other issues. Keep an eye on your plant's growth and adjust the fertilizing schedule accordingly. With the right soil mix and proper fertilization, your Variegated Jade Plant will thrive and showcase its beautiful variegated leaves! 

Hardiness Zones & More 

Like the majority of Crassulas, the Crassula ovata variegata can withstand some short-term freezing, but it will lose its leaves and eventually die in extremely cold or hot temperatures.  This Variegated Jade Plant is typically hardy in USDA hardiness zones 10-11. It prefers a warm climate and does best in temperatures between 65-75°F. In cooler zones, it can be kept outdoors during the summer and brought in as the temperature drops. 

In terms of humidity, the Variegated Jade Plant is adaptable and can tolerate a range of humidity levels. It does well in average household humidity, but it's important to avoid excessive moisture and high humidity, as it can lead to fungal issues and root rot. Good air circulation is also beneficial for the plant's overall health. 

Remember to keep an eye on the temperature and humidity levels in your specific location and adjust accordingly to provide the best conditions for your Variegated Jade Plant. With the right climate and care, your plant will thrive and bring beauty to your space!

The Propagation of the variegated Jade Plant is relatively straightforward. It can be propagated through stem or leaf cuttings.

We are in an ongoing process to reduce our dependence on plastics. These bamboo cutting boards are stunning, very well made, and easy to care for. I do recommend a wax to keep the surface shiny. Delighted with this purchase!

Beautiful, high-quality, easy to clean, pleasant to use, no glue on food-facing surfaces
Color: Glue-Free Surface - Round, Set name: Set of 3 (S, M, XL)
I love these cutting boards! I've had them about 3 weeks, and use them multiple times per day. They are flat, rigid, lightweight, easy to handle, easy to clean, dry fast, and the range of sizes is great. Much better than the plastic cutting boards they replaced! The top and bottom of each cutting board is a single piece of bamboo. On the larger boards, one or more darker bands across the board show the bamboo's natural joints, called nodes. The boards are gorgeous to look at, a pleasure to work on, and nice to touch. (I LOVE the rounded edges.) Each board is a sandwich: top, core, bottom, with all joints on the edges of the board so no glued joint touches your food. The working surfaces smell only of bamboo. (If I sniff the edges where the glued joints are, I can faintly smell wood glue.) The boards are finished with odorless food-grade mineral oil. After 2 weeks of daily use and detergent scrubs, I started to see a slight dulling of the finish. I refreshed them using the same butcher block oil (odorless food-grade mineral oil) I use on wooden cutting boards. I made sure the bamboo was thoroughly dry, wiped on a small amount of oil, and let them dry overnight in my vertical cutting board rack. This returned the finish to like-new condition.

Nice bamboo cutting board set.
Color: Glue-Free Surface - Round, Set name: Set of 3 (S, M, XL)
So far have held up very well, and I feel better about not using plastic cutting boards. Good sizes, fairly easy to wash, but it’s a shame you can’t put them in the dishwasher. Overall a very good, sturdy product.
