[INDOOR-GARDENING:77] Re: Jade Plant

Hi

I hope the Jade Plant you are referring to is what I call  a Jade Tree or
Money Plant (BTW, Latin name Crassula argentea).  I have always been told to
water it once a month only in winter - and mine seems to be doing well.  It
also likes it pretty cool (but not cold), and in fact will start to drop its
leaves if it gets too warm in winter; however, it needs/likes sunlight, and
can withstand lots of heat in the summer.

plant (latin name unknown).  I don't have a south exposure free for it, but
it is fairly close to a plant lamp, which I've had good luck with in the
past in my ficuses (fici?).  Anyway, does anybody have any wisdom you'd like
to share?  I've always wanted one and would hate to kill it.  It's about 15
years old.  Thanks to anyone who has any comment.
