How to grow jade pendants so that they can bloom to full bloom?

Jade pendant is also called jade ornaments, jade strings, jade bead curtains, etc. It belongs to the succulent plant genus Sedum of the Crassulaceae family. It is a succulent variety with particularly high ornamental value and is very suitable for hanging in the air for maintenance. So how can you grow the jade pendant so that it will bloom out of the pot? Let’s learn more about it below.

1. Soil selection

When growing jade pendants, it is generally best to choose fertile soil that is loose, breathable, and well-drained. You can prepare flower soil with three parts of coarse sand and three parts of culture soil. This kind of flower soil has strong drainage properties, allowing the roots of the jade plant to breathe better.

2. Temperature management

Jade pendants prefer warm and dry environment. The suitable temperature is above 20℃, and they grow better between 15-30℃. It is necessary to avoid being in a low or high temperature environment for a long time. The maintenance temperature in winter must be kept above 5°C. Especially in winter, anti-cold measures should be taken to avoid frostbite.

3. Lighting conditions

When growing a jade pendant, you need to give it sufficient light. Except for the hot summer season when it can be properly shaded, it is best to let it get full sun in other seasons. Only when there is sufficient light can the shape of the jade pendant become more compact and the leaves become thicker.

4. Watering tips

When watering the jade pendant, you must follow the principle of watering thoroughly when the soil is dry. Do not water too frequently, otherwise water will accumulate and the roots will rot. Generally, before watering, you can first observe whether the soil in the pot is short of water. Wait until the soil in the pot is completely dry, and then water the jade pendant. And every time you water, it is best to slowly water along the edge of the flower pot so that the potting soil can fully absorb it, and try not to let water remain in the densely populated areas of stems and leaves.

5. Reasonable fertilization

Jade pendants are relatively resistant to barrenness and do not require excessive nutrients. Fertilization should also be carried out according to the principle of applying small amounts of fertilizer. Too much fertilizer can easily cause fertilizer damage, and in severe cases can even lead to plant death. It is recommended to apply a thin layer of fertilizer mainly composed of phosphorus and potassium fertilizers once a month in spring and autumn.

6. Proper pruning

The jade pendant grows very vigorously. During the growing season, it can be pruned appropriately and the branches that are not growing well can be pruned off. This can promote the growth of new buds and the plant will be more likely to bloom. Moreover, after pruning, the shape of the plant will be better and it will look fuller.



In general, it is not difficult to make the jade pendant bloom full of pots. The key is to do a good job of management in terms of water, fertilizer, temperature, light, and pruning. However, when it grows to the size of the pot, it is best to separate it into two pots in time, so that the jade pendant will be more perfect.
