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.
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.
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.

The Jade Plant (Crassula ovata) is a succulent native to South Africa that has become a staple in Indian households. Known for its thick, glossy leaves that resemble jade stones, this plant can grow into a small shrub with woody stems over time. In India, it's often called the 'money plant' or 'friendship plant' due to its association with good fortune and positive relationships. The plant's ability to store water in its fleshy leaves makes it incredibly drought-tolerant, while its slow growth habit means it won't outgrow its space quickly. With proper care, a Jade Plant can live for decades, becoming a cherished part of your home's decor and a symbol of enduring good luck.
Jade Plants thrive in bright, indirect light and can tolerate several hours of direct sunlight daily. In Indian homes, a spot near an east or west-facing window is ideal. If you notice the leaves turning red or purple, it's a sign they're getting too much direct sun. While Jade Plants can adapt to lower light conditions, they may become leggy and lose their compact shape. Outdoors, they prefer bright light but should be protected from the harshest afternoon sun in summer. These plants are sensitive to cold, so if you live in cooler regions, bring them indoors during winter months. A Jade Plant placed in the right location will maintain its vibrant green color and compact growth habit.
The most critical aspect of Jade Plant care is proper watering. These succulents store water in their leaves, making them highly drought-tolerant. Water thoroughly only when the top 1-2 inches of soil are completely dry, then allow excess water to drain away. Overwatering is the most common cause of problems with Jade Plants, leading to root rot and leaf drop. During the growing season (spring and summer), you might need to water every 2-3 weeks, but in winter, reduce watering to once a month or less. Jade Plants prefer low humidity and do well in typical Indian home conditions. Good air circulation is important to prevent fungal issues, so avoid overcrowding plants and ensure proper drainage.
Jade Plants are toxic to pets if ingested. The plant contains cardiac glycosides that can cause vomiting, depression, and incoordination in dogs and cats. If you have curious pets, it's best to place your Jade Plant in an area they can't access. For pet owners who still want to enjoy succulents, consider keeping Jade Plants on high shelves or in hanging baskets. If you suspect your pet has consumed part of a Jade Plant, contact your veterinarian immediately. While the toxicity is generally mild, it's always better to err on the side of caution when pets are involved.
