I normally don't post my trees, if I do not find them worthwhile, but as we were discussing Jades...

As it is the only one that survives indoors here, I do have a Jade tree. They rarely make good bonsai, but I thought I'd give it a try. I routinely drop clippings into a pot. I have two full pots already... and lots of small pots with single tiny plants in 'm. One of the pots had very little soil in it, but the cuttings didn't care at all... they thrived.

So, I decided to repot them. They fitted easily in this shallow pot - I even had to add some soil.
It is amazing how little these plants need.

So, I ended up with this forest. Not planned, it just occured

I see the leaves are a bit wrinkly. Time to water. Last time was.... erm... can't remember

did you wire them into the pot?
and do you have them in store bought potting soil?

Not at all. It came just like this out of the pot the cuttings were growing in. I can take it out of the pot and it will keep standing right up like this. The roots keep it together.

and do you have them in store bought potting soil?

Yep, just regular potting soil. I had to add about 1/3, originally it was in even less soil. That's what I find interesting about this plant.

very good! I have 2 tiny jade cuttings that will just fall over if I move them. They get good sunlight but aren't growing as fast as I'd hoped.
How much sunlight does your "forest" get per day?

We have a very similar jade plant at the office, that I was looking at and really liked it as a house plant. Someone gave me a cutting, which I literally stick in a tiny pot with dirt from outside. The cutting took in about a week, and it is growing so fast and vigorously outside of my house. This plants are extremely easy to grow from cuttings! and man they grow fast.

It's in the window sill, the window is facing west. The part of the room, that is facing the garden, has a glass roof (about 1 meter I guess).
No idea how much sunlight that is...

So great. Thanks for posting. What kind is this. I notice the pink, my P.Afra does not have this color. Is yours the crassula

Correct, it is Crassula - Ovata I think, not sure.

I consider it a curiosity, not a good bonsai.

I was looking for an amount of time that it gets sunlight. It seems to be really flourishing. Even most people say Jade plants don't make for good 名媛直播, but would you consider your forest to be 名媛直播?
