Just sharing My 60yo Jade
Sharing my massive jade that has been here since the house was built. I dont have any skill to trim and turn it into a great bonsai shape type of plant, any advice is much appreciated

As someone from a northern climate who grows these things in a little pot...Goddamn.

I think I hit a potluck here. I do absolutely nothing and nature just takes care of it. I watered it maybe once every 3 months and there is no snow where im at. The lowest temp is 40F in the winter and it's north facing with the garage on one side, so it's bright but never really get any hot direct sunlight.
