How to Grow and Care for Silver dollar plant

Silver dollar plant, also known as Chinese Jade, Silver Jade Plant, Silver Dollar, Silver Dollar Jade, Money Plant, Beestebul

Silver dollar plant is a low-maintenance succulent that thrives under minimal care. Key care points include providing well-draining soil to prevent root rot and ensuring ample sunlight exposure for healthy growth. Special care should be given to watering practices; silver dollar plant requires infrequent watering, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings to mimic its natural arid habitat.

Silver dollar plant is characterized by its stout, branching habit, reaching heights typically around 3 feet (90 cm), although it can grow taller. The plant displays substantial, rounded leaves measuring 1.5 to 3 inches (3.8 to 7.6 cm) in length that boast a distinct silver-gray coloration. Edges of the leaves are often tinged with maroon, complemented by reddish spots on the upper surface. Blooms are infrequent in cultivation, yet when they do occur, they present as white, star-shaped flowers that transition to pink, clustered in open corymbs during the summer season. This succulent's robust stems and fleshy leaves are indicative of its water-retention capacity, and it should be watered sparingly.
