Isn’t she beautiful?!! It’s about 3’ without the pot and 4’ with. Currently flowering. I’m in love! Any guesses as to age?

    That looks a little bigger than my Dad’s jade which was sold at an estate sale as well. I live across the country and couldn’t take it home with me so my mom sold it. It was just over 30 years old, he bought it a couple years after I was born.

    Yours is beautiful and I hope whoever loved it all those years can rest easy knowing it’s in good hands.

    Jade plants are easy to care for but they keep on growing. I got one the same size as yours for free on offerup and now I have 20 more that I propagated and those are almost the same size as the original plant!

    Holy shit this is absolutely incredible.
    How do you make a jade sprout like this?
    I have a small one that’s gotten much bigger and it only has like two branches that come off the main branch !

    (I also took a leaf from it and put it in water and now the leaf is growing roots and I really want to plant it, but I actually might take pictures of it and post on here and see what you guys think I should do or if it’s gonna work)

    To answer your question about age. It may be 10+ yrs. Mine was already 5+years when I got it and it has been 5 yrs since I got it and its the same size you mentioned. The cuttings I used to propagate don’t have such thick stems but they are as tall.
