Description

Crassula ovata, more commonly known as the Jade Plant or Money Plant, is a fabulous succulent that’s said to be lucky, attracting wealth, and is incredibly popular all over the world, and deservedly so!

The shiny leaves of this evergreen, bushy plant are a rich jade green in colour with a slight red tinge to their edges. Although slow growing, Crassula can reach 2m in height, so it makes a bold and dramatic specimen houseplant, and as it loves the sun, you’ll find the perfect spot on a bright windowsill or in conservatory. During late summer, clusters of lightly scented, small star-shaped white or pale pink flowers appear all over the plant.

Fully deserving its coveted RHS Award of Garden Merit, you can be sure that this is a proven garden performer, guaranteed to be suitable for UK gardeners at every level of experience. You can therefore plant this in the garden with confidence, for stunning displays for many years to come.

One of the easiest houseplants to look after, Crassula needs nothing more than a regular feed during the growing season, and little water.

Supplied as a potted plant in a 12cm pot, reaching a height of 2m (6½ft) and spread of 1.25m (4ft).

Top Tips
  • Can be grown in a more shaded area, but the leaves will become darker.
Care Information
  • Position in a warm room away from cold draughts and radiators.
  • The ideal temperature is between 10°C (50°F) and 23°C (75°F).
  • Crassula require a bright location with plenty of sun, although it’s best to provide some shelter during the hottest part of the day.
  • Water only when the soil is dry between spring and autumn, preferably with tepid rainwater and allow the pot to drain well between waterings.
  • Feed regularly when you see active growth.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
