One of the most beautiful and aesthetically pleasing plants is undoubtedly the Jade. It grows well with or without sunlight, can handle the occasional dry spells, and even grows without any additional fertilisation. And here are 10 reasons why it is a must-have.

The Jade plant is said to be a sign of good luck and prosperity across cultures. It is said that a healthy Jade plant is a symbol of growth and financial stability. And thus people keep Jade not just in homes but also offices.

Jade plants are one of the easiest houseplants to grow, which makes them the perfect addition to a beginner garden. They need minimal watering, even in the hot spells, and can handle not getting water for about 3-4 days.

Jade plants also help improve indoor air quality and are believed to filter out toxins, making the air cleaner and fresher. Keeping a Jade plant in the living room or in the bedrooms thus helps with a better environment around.

With thick, glossy leaves and a tree-like shape, Jade is also perfect for indoor decor. The green leaves are a delight to look at, and when kept on tabletops or windowsills, will enhance the look of the space.

Jade plants can live for decades with proper care, and some are even passed down through generations. And while this isn’t possible if only kept indoors, even the occasional sunlight and pruning will make it happen.

Unlike many houseplants, jade plants do not need frequent watering. Watering them just once every 2-3 days is also enough, especially in low sunlight conditions.

For many people, just being around plants is like a stress buster. And being around the Jade plant can have similar results in people, making them happier, calmer, and just have a sense of relaxation.

There are some plants that absolutely need sunlight to grow, and some others that only need artificial light. Jade, on the other hand, is good with both. It continues to grow and thrive in both artificial and natural light.

Jade plants are also pretty helpful in removing dryness from the air. It is said that Jade releases moisture into the air, which helps maintain humidity levels in the home.

Jade is also easy to propagate and having one healthy Jade plant means a lifetime supply of Jade propagation. You can propagate Jade by simply cutting a leaf or stem and allowing it to root in soil.
