This Crassula is a relatively slow growing species when compared to C ovata or the 'normal' Jade plant people think of. This plant has much heavier leaves and branches, that will, with time, collapse themselves if not pruned. This species does not seem to be that happy in shade, but will grow. It is an easy plant to propogate and grow in most areas of southern California.

Jade plants don't need full sun to grow. They will grow in partial shade or even full shade. No pruning is necessary as they grow naturally symmetrical unless stressed.
The Silver Jade has round and 'fat' leaves. They are a silvery-green with a red edge if in strong enough light.
