🌞 Light Requirements

Prefers bright indirect to partial sunlight. Place near a window for best growth. Can tolerate direct morning light but avoid harsh afternoon sun indoors. Perfect for indoor and semi-outdoor setups.

💧 Watering

Water only when the top 4–5 cm of soil feels dry. Being a succulent, the Jade Plant Menechar stores water in its leaves, making it drought-tolerant. Overwatering is the main cause of leaf drop — keep it on the drier side.

🌡️ Temperature & Humidity

Thrives in 18–32°C and normal room humidity. Protect from frost and cold drafts. Excellent choice for Indian urban climates and indoor growing.

🌱 Soil & Fertilizer

Use a well-draining cactus/succulent mix with sand, perlite, and compost. Feed once every 6–8 weeks during the growing season (spring–summer) using a mild fertilizer for healthy, compact growth.

✂️ Care & Maintenance

Wipe leaves occasionally to maintain their shine. Prune leggy branches to shape the plant and encourage new growth. Repot every 2–3 years using a slightly larger pot to maintain balance and freshness.

📍 Regional Care Tips

• 🌞 North India (Delhi, Rajasthan, UP): Place near bright windows; water sparingly in dry seasons.
• 🌴 South India (Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka): Thrives in shaded balconies with filtered light.
• 🌧️ North-East (Assam, Meghalaya): Ensure good drainage to prevent overwatering in humid weather.
