How to fertilize Trailing 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 Trailing Jade after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Hi this is supposed to be a weeping jade plant but it is growing straight up. Is it stretching or will it eventually weep over? #Jade

Propagation tips!! Hi! My trailing jade has THRIVED in its south facing window, and it’s tendrils are almost 2’ long! I want to propagate and share with my friends - has anyone found a method that works best?? I’m used to water-propagating but I’m not sure if this is the best method with a succulent type plant. Any tips/tricks welcome!

Mystery Plant Discovered! #BarbertonSenecio Hey everyone! I was gifted this mystery plant almost two years ago and never knew what it was until I found this app! However I am not seeing any that are as large as mine when I look up images… Should I trim it down/split it? Or is it okay to just leave as it is and let him keep growing?! Thanks!! Also… It has never blossomed with the pretty yellow flowers I have been seeing….

Why she look like that #Kleinia

I guess she likes me! @PlantEsteem #Kleinia

Propagation technique She was so root bound but did not like getting repotted. Her thick stem turned to mush! Question 1 should I try water or soil propagation? Question 2 can I propagate the whole long trail? Or will that fail and I need to chop into ~4inch prop sections. Thank you #Kleinia

Hello guys! I’ve been having a super hectic past few days, my great grandma is in hospice so a couple of things have been neglected lately to say the least… including myself & plants. 🤷🏻♀️ a couple got zapped by the cold so I’ve been a little upset this morning.. On a better note, I planted my last plant from my birthday haul. •‘Kleinia Stapeliiformis’ also known as ‘pickle plant’. I love how they look in my new pot(s) I got from #TheNextGardener 🌈 they are so cute, I love the pastel glaze. looks like you could eat it 😆 🍭 It’s a set, the other one has purple instead of yellow. •Echeveria Dusty Rose 🌸 she was having a rough start at first but she’s finally settling in her pot, & putting off new growth! •Kyoto is still blooming, and has grown also! I can’t believe all the blooms she keeps putting off. • Lastly I’m super proud of how well my ‘Cotelydon White Sprite’ has done, 🤍 she is putting off all types of new growth, I will have to post more pics in another post, cause this one doesn’t do her justice! #NewGrowth #SucculentSquad #SucculentLove #GrowLights #HappyPlants #Kleinia #PicklePlant #Echeveria #Cotyledon

Pickle Plant Update 🥒 🌱🪴✨ They are still doing really great, the tallest pickle has gotten too tall to keep them on the shelf.l I’ve kept them on, without it getting sunburnt. it’s grown so tall it won’t fit on the shelf without sticking it between my grow lights. but if I continue to keep it there I’m thinking it will get sunburned being to close to the intense lighting. So I will have to move this baby to an area with more space! 🤗 I’m so impressed with this plant, it was half the size when I got it, and it was my first plant I had ever received bare roots from an online order. Although not all the plants in this order made it, I have atleast 5 that thrived once they got used to their new home. (: hope you guys are having a good weekend! #PicklePlant #NewGrowth #GrowingSuccs #GrowLights #SucculentSquad #SucculentLove #Succulents #Succulent #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy

Pickle Pal Update 🥒💚🌱 I watered today & treated them with arber fungicide & insecticide to keep them happy & healthy. I love the pattern on them, as well as the lil spine texture. They are actually soft but look like little spines. I need to start measuring them so I can track the growth more accurately. #HappyPlants #NewGrowth #SucculentLove #SucculentSquad #Succulents #Succulent #GrowingSuccs #PicklePlant #Senecio #GrowLights #PlantAddict #HappyPlants

What other plant parents say









I have this plant in a southwest facing window, and it LOVES it. The pot that I have is three separate plants (two small, one older), and I was worried they would be crammed, but I think they like it! It’s so easy to tell when it needs water because the leaves get a slight bend to them. This is my favorite plant that I own :) if you have a bright window, I highly recommend!!
