About curly jade
Plants in the Crassula genus are amazingly diverse and come in an incredible assortment of sizes and colors. Many of the ones we grow today are native to a small region in South Africa, which makes that diversity even more amazing! They're super low maintenance plants that can handle long periods of drought, so great if you're prone to skipping waters (we won't tell). 🫢 Make sure they get plenty of sunlight and that they're planted in a pot with a drainage hole and they'll be happy as can be!

How to fertilize curly jade

Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your curly jade after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Rooting powder yes/no Hey jade friends -- my Gemma's not in the habit of dropping leaves, but tonight I was gifted with one. I mean to attempt propagation, and I have rooting powder handy. Is it a good idea for this species, or should I stick with the usual methods? #Crassula

I adopted a plant from a nursery that was closing but am having trouble figuring out what it is. Please look through all 3 pics to see the large center stem coming up. Is this a crassula platyphylla? #help #identifymyplant #identify #crassulaplatyphylla #Crassula

How to get it to continue growing up one layer at a time instead of branching into multiple heads? Had my plant recently split into two at the top. Wondering how to go about having it grow straight up. I see some of them on here get pretty tall. #Crassula #crassula #HappyPlants #SucculentSquad #SucculentLove

Hi👋 I recently bought a Sedum Little Missy and I think it might have root rot? The roots come out of the soil very easily, the end of the stems where the roots end are quite yellowed and quite a bit of the leaves have shriveled up and died. 😥 #Crassula

Suggestions? #Crassula

Goliath is leaning. I repotted him and cut off a hefty piece on one side and planted at the base. I lightly staked with a skewer. He started very small but has grown a lot. If I turn him away from the window, do you think he will even out? #Crassula
