How to make a jade tree bloom and perfume your whole house

Although very decorative, the jade plant isn’t suitable for every room. Kitchens and bathrooms, often hot and humid, should be avoided. This atmosphere prevents the plant from thriving properly and inhibits flowering. Opt for a bright living room or a well-ventilated bedroom to provide it with a balanced environment closer to its natural needs.

Recognizing the first jade flowers

When the magic finally happens, the flowers appear at the tips of the branches, in small, star-shaped clusters, usually white with slight pink or purple highlights. They bloom mainly in late winter or early spring and give off a subtle but pleasant fragrance, amply rewarding your patience and care.
