Jade may be surprised to learn that these little beauties are actually a type of succulents and are super hardy! Jade plants are best suited to a bright position with at least some direct sun. You will not do well in a very shady position. Kokedama Care LIGHT: Be sure to provide enough light for your plant to thrive; can be placed indoors near a bright window receiving indirect light; a south or west facing location is recommended. However, it does best when placed outdoors, although outdoor conditions must be just right (sufficient heat and sun). WATER: These plants only need to be watered every 3 weeks but it can take up to 4 weeks, the easiest way to kill one of these plants is to over water it, it will get weak, you will notice them go soft. It is irrigated by immersion, you just have to submerge the ball in a container full of water for 15 minutes or until it is completely saturated with water. Remove the kokedama from the water, letting the excess water drain off before placing it back on a plate or base. The irrigation frequency will vary depending on the location, in any case this is only indicative, the irrigation frequency also depends on the temperature and humidity, among other factors. So adjust your watering based on the conditions in which your plant lives. And remember, it is almost always better to water less than more.
