June 28, 2017Q.Jade indoor houseplant
My Jade plant has new leaves and sturdy branches and does not get watered except when soil is dry. Several days ago the entire plant (about 12 in. tall) began to lean over to the point where I have put a brace under the plant to keep it erect. What is going on? Except for the leaning condition it seems to be in good shape with new leaves emerging and strong main branches. Thanks for any help. Mardale Wilson

June 29, 2017A.This is likely a need for more water for your plant. During the active growing months, your plant will need a bit more water. Make sure you are watering the entire root ball and then allow it to dry between waterings.

July 22, 2017Q.Jade plant
My jade was doing wonderfully none morning the entire 3 trunks had laid down on the side of the pot. It had not been moved, nothing was broken but does not stand up. I have braced it with a panty hose tied around the branches. It is healthy not dropping leaves and they are green. It is on a porch in central Florida. What is causing this and what can I do?

60618Q.Propagating large Jade plant branch that broke off
I have a very large, approximately four foot Jade plant that I inherited last year. It was doing great until recently, when a huge branch broke off after my dog tipped it over. The branch is about 1.5 feet. I know I can propagate individual leaves and small cuttings, but is there anything I can do to save this beautiful branch? There is also a smaller one, about a half foot long. They are both pictured below. Any advice would be so appreciated, I was so devastated when I saw this broken branch!

August 5, 2017Q.jade plant
I have a mature jade plant I changed into a new pot and potting soil. My worry is I placed it outside in April on a very warm day. I went shopping, came back the leaves were burnt. I brought into the house, the burnt fall off and it started to grow new, but they also dried up. Now the big stems are going to mushy. How can I bring it back to life, very upset? Was going to replace it but very costly for the same size, also it means very much to me.

Certified ExpertA.Make sure you did not use to large of a container. When repotting, only go up 1 size and make sure the pot has adequate drainage. The mushy stems could be from root rot. If healthy stems of the plant remain, you can prune these from the plants and propagate new ones. Here are some links with more information.

August 25, 2017Q.Sick Jade Plant
This was a beautiful jade plant and has now gotten what looks like burning on the leaves. It has been in my sunroom for several years and I seem to recall that it did the same thing last year about the same time and then recovered winter/early spring. It is fine year round in the same location until about late August. Please see the attached photo and let me know what I should do to improve/save this plant.

August 25, 2017A.This could be basically a sunburn due to excessive light. Since the problem appears in August, it probably does have to do with the additional sun or heat. Keep the plant out of direct sunlight for a few weeks (but do give it normal indoor light) until it begins to recover. Then, perhaps you could place it under the shade of another plant in the sunroom or keep it in another location in the house.
