sedum sieboldii, some jade bonsais, group of jade

I like this. Sedum sieboldii. October Plant.

This jade cutting turned out good. The black "tableau" is the cover of my BBQ. Classy, eh?

This one needs a little pruning, but also nice.

All the jade cuttings from this year, or most of them.

Overhead shot of 3 gasteria or gasteraloe. I call them "straps" because the leaves are just like leather straps. Also note the blueberry growing in the epiphyllum pot. Not sure how that happened.

deep roots,
I like the variegation on your Sedum sieboldii but the flowers make it that much more beautiful (I just love the shade of purple)! I also really like your Gasterias.

deep__roots,

That's neat how you layed your Jade's on their side to get a different look. Have you ever left one grow like that? Just curious how it would look as it got bigger?

Thanks, Marguerite! I don't mind the sharing and comparing of certain pics, but I do agree that I prefer specialized Threads that follow grower's progress with their plants. It helps keep things more organized. My Jades, all separated into their own pots, are growing well. My 'Red Horn Tree' was utterly toasted by the sun, and so I've been waiting for new growth to come in so that it doesn't look so awful!!! 'Legolas' has scarcely grown, but that's not much of a surprise with this variety. The Lancaster variegated and the Maruba Nishiki are doing fantastic, although the Maruba is / seems more prone to edema. That said, it is not only branching but is also putting out two new branches lower down the trunk. Josh

The variegated is not peek, the white is ver obvious, it is named 'Peek' because the white is just peeking out. It is sometimes difficult to see if you are not looking for it. I have two different forms of this sport. Norma Mary I don't know it all, I have been at it a long time. I am still learning thank goodness. Norma

Mini jade?

It is a Crassula ovata 'minima,' 'mini jade,' or 'baby jade' my understanding is they are all the same thing. It is basically like you thought a mini version of your big jade. If your other jade is doing well I would treat it the same. That is a nice size plant, and would make an excellent bonsai style plant. Maybe a nice bonsai pot would go well? I just started training this bigger jade cutting as a bonsai and put it in a really small bonsai pot I have. A bigger bonsai pot that I used would work for yours (not too big though) there is a trick to bigger bonsais through defoliation to a achieve that small leaf look. Which I will eventually work on for mine but you already have the small leaves.

When to repot a young jade plant

We water our succulents regularly. though they are probably the most drought-tolerant plants on the planet, we don't hold back watering. Over time, nutrients within soil tend to deplete (nutrients wash away with the water), so the soil becomes weaker and weaker. Changin soil, or reporting the plant is a good practice to keep the plant fresh, and rich with nutrients. If you are not sure about the soil or pot, just repot it. Don't get confused. You can see evidence of my comment on the fertilization and soil section of this article. My jade is healthy because I follow the practice mentioned in the article (given in the link). I change soil once a while. Source: https://crassulacare.com/

americangolden, This pic might show what a jade laying on it's side would look like when it got bigger. A short while ago I did a heavy whack on this c ovata to get a more compact canopy. The stump is 20" from the soil level. The top pot opening is 8". I call it " bigfoot ". Mike

Love the pics Mike =) Big foot jade is awesome! What are the plants by the dinosaur that look like lettuce? Is that Jade also?

Lettuce is ripple jade. Appeared at Home Depots in my area this year.
