Every plant reacts differently. Discover custom botanical analyses for your Crassula ovata.
Crassula Ovata (Jade Plant) : Yellow Leaves (Chlorosis)
The Jade Plant (Crassula) sometimes spontaneously sacrifices a few old lower leaves that yellow and fall. However, a sudden yellowing of several fleshy leaves always signals overwatering.
Crassula Ovata (Jade Plant) : Root Rot
This is the leading cause of death for indoor Crassulas. The trunk becomes soft at its base, shrivels, and the plant literally collapses under its own weight.
Crassula Ovata (Jade Plant) : Soft or Drooping Leaves
The Crassula is very expressive: healthy leaves are hard as an apple. Flabby, soft, and wrinkled leaves are a direct signal that its internal water reserves are depleting.
