Crassula ovata (Jade Plant)
This lucky plant is a firm favourite.
One of the easiest houseplants to look after and one of the most popular plants we sell. Crassula ovata look like a bonsai without the price tag of one! Crassula are also known for being good luck in many cultures and bringing financial prosperity - the leaves are said to resemble coins.
The Jade plant will (probably) totally forgive you if you forget to water it for a while - in fact it should be watered much less than you think! Just remember that is needs a good sunny spot in a window with the widest possible view of the sky. As a succulent this fun bushy tree like plant will tolerate dry air and hot rooms but not overly humid environments like bathrooms.
