Why Jade Plant Thrives in Dubai & the UAE

Jade Plant is exceptionally drought-tolerant and revels in UAE heat and bright light. It needs sharply free-draining soil and only occasional watering once the soil has dried, with overwatering the main risk to avoid. Slow-growing and resilient, it is ideal for xeriscaping. For general botanical guidance on Jade Plant, see the Plants of the World Online (Kew) database.
