Care Tips: 

• 💧 Watering: Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Jade plants are drought-tolerant and prefer infrequent watering. 🚿

• 🌡️ Temperature: Prefers average to warm temperatures between 65-75°F (18-24°C). Protect from freezing temperatures. 🌡️
• 🌱 Soil: Well-draining cactus or succulent soil mix is ideal for the Jade Plant. Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot. 🌱
• 🌼 Fertilization: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength every 2-4 weeks during the growing season. 🌿🌸
• ✂️ Pruning: Trim as needed to maintain shape and remove any leggy or unhealthy growth. Propagated cuttings can be rooted to grow new plants. ✂️
• 🌿 Propagation: Easily propagated from stem or leaf cuttings. Allow the cuttings to dry and callus before planting in well-draining soil.
• 💨 Air Circulation: Adequate air circulation helps prevent fungal diseases. Avoid placing Jade Plants in overly humid environments.
