Sculptural and timeless, the Crassula 'Jade Bonsai' brings a serene and architectural presence to your interior. Its fleshy, deep green leaves evoke strength and prosperity. This variety is distinguished by its robust trunk that naturally branches out, offering the look of a miniature tree without the maintenance constraints of traditional bonsais.

Characteristics

• Foliage: Small, oval, and glossy succulent leaves that store water for increased resilience.
• Habit: Tree-like and compact, developing a woody trunk over time.
• Light: Requires bright light; thrives in direct full sun, which may cause the leaf edges to turn a beautiful red.
• Growth: Slow and controlled, maintaining its graphic shape for years.
• Usage : An indestructible indoor plant, ideal for our climates where indoor air is dry in winter.

Use

• Style & Placement: Rehaussez a minimalist office, a sunny windowsill in the living room, or a console table in a bright entryway.
• Decorative Benefits: Offers a Zen and structured aesthetic when paired with a ceramic or terracotta decorative pot.

Care & Success

• Watering: Allow the potting mix to dry out completely between waterings. When in doubt, wait; it is sensitive to overwatering.
• Humidity: Adapts perfectly to the dry air of our heated homes. No misting required.
• Potting Soil: Use a specific cactus and succulent mix, very well-drained and sandy.
• Fertilizing: Apply a succulent fertilizer two to three times a year, from March to September only.
• Pruning: Pinch back new growth to maintain a compact shape and encourage the trunk to branch out.
• Repotting: Rarely needed (every 3–4 years), as it prefers being slightly root-bound.
