Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to apply water fairly sparingly. Keep in mind when planting that Jade is thought of as very hardy, so this plant will tend to survive through freezing conditions.

Growing Jade from seed

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 1.95 feet (60.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.0 inches (0.01 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 25°C / 77°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Jade about 56 days before your last frost date.

Transplanting Jade

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Jade is a very hardy plant.
