Jade stores water in its leaves. Let the compost dry fully, then water well. Too much water is far more dangerous to it than too little.

Once established this plant rarely needs watering. Alerts are worth acting on mainly in a long dry spell or in its first year.

A long lived succulent with plump, coin shaped leaves, often grown as a small indoor tree. Very tolerant of dry conditions.
