pallas_athenaFor some time now, I've been cultivating little jade trees from cuttings off my big jade tree (which, itself, started life as a leaf that fell off someone else's.) The current crop are all grown up, and now the windowsill is getting crowded.
So: Would anyone like a free jade tree? I've got about seven ready to go to new homes. Jades are very low-maintenance: they're indoor plants; they like some sun; they only need to be watered once a week at most, and can go as long as a month without water. I've never bothered with fertilizer or anything, and they've always done fine.
Obviously, this offer is limited to people in the UK, but you don't have to be a Londoner-- I will happily bring a jade tree to any convenient rendezvous point.
Not sure what a jade tree is? Here's one. Their proper name is Crassula ovata; they're also sometimes called "money trees" or "friendship trees."
