So not sure why, but I got 48 Downvotes last time I told someone in this community that they should also share with the r/succulents community but you should ABSOLUTELY share this with them and blow their minds as you did mine. I would give up my bedroom if that plant needed it!

WHAT A BEAUT!!
I bought a wee $3 Jade at IKEA when I moved out at age 19. I just turned 39 (fuck me) and mine is close to this size. It was one of my first plants, has probably been my easiest, and is 100% my most treasured of all the hundreds I’ve acquired and lost (RIP) over the years. Like, I’d *literally* grab it first in a fire…after my actual human children, of course.
I endeavour to pass it down to whoever truly wants it - hopefully one of my kiddos - and I desperately want to see it bloom some day.

Mine is flowering, but I bought it flowering. LOL.

this is probably the biggest jade plant i’ve ever seen! it’s beautiful. i have a little itty bitty starter jade right now and i hope it gets this to be this gigantic and gorgeous one day :)
You should see the ones living outside here in California. They’re used for landscaping sometimes. OP’s plant is fantastic, but I’ve seen some absolute behemoths. [Here’s one](https://imgur.com/a/hShMp1I) I saw the other day near my neighborhood that was just enormous
Isn’t that elephant bush? https://a-z-animals.com/blog/elephant-bush-vs-jade-plant-what-are-the-differences/ I assume the stems aren’t red because it doesn’t get direct sunlight.
I have one. they grow so slowly so to see this. what a babe. I have a similar setup with a jade and an aloe near each other. way more mature than mine. they typically get a lot of sun but it's winter right now so I haven't seen her in a bit.
Wow! Im really interested to know what their pruning was like over the years. Ime jade is pretty easy to care for, but I’m never really sure how to cut it to get the overall shape I want and I just love how full this is!
Do your parents know what kind of jade this magnificent beast is? I have one exactly like it (but stupidly smaller) and I am leaning towards a dwarf jade but not sure.
Atlas bows his head in honor of those poor rolling casters 😅. Absolutely lovely jade!
Getting their moneys worth out of the casters that’s for sure!
Tripling that number of casters *will* help muchly to escape a later toppling disaster... Just a passing (helpful) idea... :)

Great minds think alike *!* ... Hurray *!* ... :)
Yup... Murphy's Law awaits... :)

Fuck those downvotes. I’ll go over there right now and share the shit out of this! Thanks for the recommendation!
Haha, yup, some people take things too seriously. I visit to see cool things and offer help when I can. Go blow it up!
I just went through your post/comment history and gave you 48 upvotes to counteract the lames. Party on friend.
Haha, you're funny and thanks!
That community isn't always welcoming or friendly, especially to amateurs or casual enthusiasts.
I see, thank you for the insight. I will UPVote you 🤗
Wow!!! Any idea how old it is?
No, but I will find out for you. Standby.
I’ve been told 15-20 years best guess.
My mind just melted!!!! I can't get a jade to stay alive if my life depended on it.
My latest one has been sitting dead on the window sill for a week now!
Wow!!! And that aloe 💜
My thoughts exactly. I honestly could have taken photos of every plant in the house but decided to have some self control.
I know I would love to see them all 💜
Yeah I was going to say, share more! 😁

I tried my best to get the scale of it but I guess without a banana it just doesn’t work.
Here you go bud. 🍌
Yeah, it took me a minute to figure out what was going on lol.

Is that pot solid cement?! Properly counter weighing my jade plant has always been a worry of mine since it tips over sometimes, then I see this!
I’m not sure if it’s concrete, but it is definitely heavy. I really like the glass bead inlay regardless.
This is the prettiest jade I’ve ever seen!!! 😍😍
What an absolute UNIT
r/matureplants would love this
Thanks for the recommendation. I’ll check it out
I think your parents live in the Jade's house.
I like this. I’ll have to tell them. Lol
Wow
Gosh it’s beautiful!
This is jade porn! 😍
The Jade from wence all others are born

It makes me want to yell at my 3 sparse branches "SEE WHAT YOU COULD BE IF YOU STOP THAT POWDERY MILDEW NONSENSE!" Absolutely GORGEOUS!
WOW
That is one beautiful big ass jade plant.

Absolute unit of a plant
This is absurd.
Shhh… it knows you’re talking about it. 🤫
Stunning

No sorry, they aren’t sure exactly what type it is.
What's their secret? I acquired a giant jade and it fell apart on me 😭
Gorgeous! I have one that sees this as goals. The thing is monstrous and just. won't. stop. growing.
Wowwww ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I just want my Jade to do this good… I’ll need to get her her own light
How is it so even and shiny? I’m in awe.
It’s stunning !!
I have such a strong emotional reaction seeing such beauty! Thank you! 😍😍😍
That is AMAZING...Wow!!!
