Arrived overnight, looking exactly like the photos
Ordered Tuesday at 8 PM, delivered Wednesday by 9:30 AM. Plant was healthy, tall (about 16 inches), came in the charcoal pot exactly as shown. The packaging was thoughtful — wood shavings, tied stems, no soil spill. Two weeks in and it's already pushed out a new leaf.
Survived me. That's a big deal.
I have killed every plant I have ever owned. Got this for the bedroom. Watered it once in 6 weeks. Still alive, still growing. The team also responded on WhatsApp within an hour when I asked if it was getting too much sun. Not paid to say this.
Beautiful plant, slightly smaller than expected
Plant itself is gorgeous and very healthy. Only minor gripe — I expected the medium size to be taller, but it's closer to 14 inches than 18. Still very happy with it. The Khurja ceramic pot is honestly the best part.

About the Jade Big Leaf Plant
The Jade Big Leaf (Pune Variety) is a specific cultivar of the Crassula Ovata, distinguished by its larger, more substantial leaves compared to other Jade varieties. Originating from South Africa, it has become a cherished plant in India for its resilience and auspicious associations. As a succulent, it stores water in its fleshy leaves, stems, and roots, allowing it to survive in arid conditions with little attention. This Pune Variety is particularly valued for its robust growth habit, making it a long-lasting and attractive addition to any garden or home. Its thick, glossy leaves are not just beautiful but also functional, helping the plant conserve moisture and withstand the warm Indian climate.
Light & Placement
Jade Big Leaf plants thrive in bright, direct sunlight. For optimal growth, place your plant in a spot that receives at least 5-6 hours of sunlight daily. A south-facing balcony, a sunny windowsill, or an open terrace are ideal locations. In the intense summer heat, some afternoon shade can prevent the leaves from getting scorched. During the winter months, while the plant can tolerate cooler temperatures, it should be protected from frost and extreme cold. As an outdoor plant, it loves the sun but appreciates being moved to a slightly sheltered spot during the harshest parts of the season. gardengro delivers plants that are already accustomed to Indian sunlight, ensuring a smooth transition to their new home.
Watering & Humidity
The most critical aspect of Jade plant care is proper watering. Due to its succulent nature, it is highly drought-tolerant and susceptible to root rot if overwatered. Water your Jade Big Leaf only when the top 1-2 inches of soil are completely dry to the touch. This might mean watering once every 1-2 weeks, depending on the climate and season. Always ensure the pot has excellent drainage to allow excess water to escape. The plant prefers low humidity, so it's well-suited for the dry air found in most Indian homes. During the monsoon season, be extra cautious with watering and reduce the frequency to prevent waterlogged soil.
Pet Safety & Toxicity
The Jade Big Leaf plant is considered non-toxic to cats and dogs, making it a safe choice for pet owners. While it's perfectly safe to have around your furry friends, it's still a good practice to discourage pets from chewing on any houseplants. The thick, waxy leaves are not particularly palatable, so pets are unlikely to bother them. This pet-friendly quality, combined with its easy-care nature, makes the Jade plant an excellent option for households that want to enjoy greenery without worrying about their pets' safety.
Vastu & Symbolism
In Indian culture, the Jade plant is revered as a powerful symbol of prosperity, good luck, and positive energy. According to Vastu Shastra, placing a Jade plant in the home or office is believed to attract wealth and financial success. It is often recommended to position the plant in the southeast corner of the home, which is the direction associated with the planet Venus and governs wealth. Its vibrant, green colour is also linked to growth, renewal, and harmony. Many people in India keep a Jade plant specifically for these auspicious reasons, making it much more than just a decorative item but a meaningful part of their living space.

Care steps
- Place in bright light. Position your Jade plant where it gets at least 5-6 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal growth.
- Water sparingly. Only water when the topsoil is completely dry, typically every 1-2 weeks, to prevent root rot.
- Ensure good drainage. Use a pot with drainage holes and a well-draining soil mix to keep the plant healthy.
- Protect from frost. Bring the plant indoors or to a sheltered spot during cold winter nights to prevent damage.
- Fertilize lightly. Feed with vermicompost twice a year, in spring and summer, to encourage healthy growth without over-fertilizing.
- Prune occasionally. Trim back leggy growth to maintain a compact shape and encourage fuller, bushier development.
