So many cute flowers. She only does this every few years for me. I know people who have had a Jade for many years without a single blossom.

Little pollen. Cute buggers.

Full view of my baby. She spends her summers outside and her winters indoors. She is a good plant. VHS tape for scale because, ehhhh... shut up.

Sleepy cat tax.

Cool! I've had Jade plants over the years and have never had one bloom.

Move it to a new location in your home. If you can get it to receive sun at a different time of day that will often trigger flowering :)

Grab it by the branches and speak words of love to it, if that doesn't work try threatening it.

I just got caught doing something similar to this by my girlfriend. I might be single now.

My Jade plant is doing quite poorly, any pointers on health?

Mine seems to like neglect. Like forgetting to water it for a few months once in a while.

Legit good advice. Haha. Overwatering is easy to do. Let it dry out and also try different locations in your home!

Is your Jade doing any better?

It is haha thank you! I did re pot it and fertilise it but also have just been neglecting it a bit which is working well.

Yay. I let mine get so dry the petals get skinny and wrinkly. That's a bit extreme but yes, it helps to neglect them!

I had two plants in the one pot, one didn’t make it and the other did. The one that’s left is dropping leaves a lot though.
