Propagating jade plants -How to root jade cuttings: stems, and leaves


Jade, like most other succulents, is easy to care for, easy to propagate, and beautiful year-round. They make great houseplants. There are many varieties of jade (crassula, aka money tree) and they can all be propagated in the same way. 

There are two methods of propagating Jade plants; one using stems and one using individual leaves, and this video shows how to do both. Propagating Jade using both methods is easy, but using stems is a faster and a more successful method. If you have access to a jade plant, you can propagate many more plants using both stems and leaves. You can give them away to friends, family, neighbors, and make the world a better, a greener place.

Here's some more information on jades: They like bright areas, but not  much direct sun light. Their roots like to be crowded, so they rarely need to be potted-up into larger containers. They don't like sitting in wet soil so after the initial 2-3 weeks after propagation make sure the soil dries between waterings (good draining/sandy soil is best, but it's not a necessity.) Good luck and thanks for watching!
