  • In Part 1, I am pruning a Jade bonsai forest and watering my newer Jade forest for the first time. I prune a large Jade cutting to get it ready to plant in part 2.
    The scientific name for the Jade plant is Crassula ovata.
    Check the playlist tab on the channel main page for previous videos on these trees.

    A guy on a FB bonsai page said "Jade isn't bonsai." He then commented that Portulacara Afra is not jade, which is true, and said, "Show me a jade bonsai." So I posted your video. I think you clearly demonstrate he's wrong. Nice jade trees and forests! Thank you!!!

    The aquamarine colored bonsai pot was actually phenomenal, in my humble opinion. It was a dynamic contrast to the earthen colors of the plant foliage and stalk. But hey, to each his own. Beautiful plants you've got there. Subscribed.

    I just decided to start doing bonsai. I was looking for some info and found your video. Luckily I have a Jade plant! He's not doing very well and I almost gave him up.... Until now! Thanks to your video my Jade plant will be fabulous again! ✨

    Hello thank you for a relaxing and informative video. Plants are wonderful and so important. I have a small potted house jade plant. It's about 3 years old. One of my favorite plants to have.

    Wonderful video! I'm watching this in the middle of summer in Palm Springs where it's about 42 degrees today (107F), so the beautiful tour of your snowy backyard was fantastic. Here my jade trees go dormant in the summer and have to be brought inside or they essentially 'melt'. Left out in this heat the plant cells must die, then the cell walls break down so the whole tree crumples into a pile of mush. Indoors they survive but don't thrive until cooler weather returns and they can go back outside. I have learned the hard way that this is true for most succulents. They may look a bit like cactus plants but the similarities are only superficial. However the plant that looks like a jade but with smaller, rounder leaves (I'm forgetting the name) does take the heat and seems to thrive in it.

    I have just discovered you after searching about how and when to plant my baby bonsai trees in new pots. After one video, I went and pruned my fig like no other....I'm excited to see how it grows out. I also have a HUGE jade plant in my greenhouse that I KNOW needs pruning..so here I am! So excited to find your videos!!!
