A compact cultivar of the jade plant with upright stems and pale green leaves tipped with creamy white. 'Horntree White' grows very slowly, forming sturdy, bonsai-like clumps to around 20 cm tall. Its compact habit makes it ideal for small pots or bonsai training.
Care
Light: Full sun to light shade. Best colour and growth in bright light.
Water: Water regularly in warmer months; reduce in winter. Mature plants tolerate short dry periods.
Temperature: Prefers warm conditions but tolerates light frost if kept dry.
Media: Free-draining succulent or cactus mix.
Feeding: Light feeding once a month in the growing season. Too much nitrogen produces softer, greener growth.
Repotting: Allow to become pot bound for miniature effect or repot into free-draining soil in warmer months.
