We want to first preface this by saying that bonsai is an art form. How you decide to shape or trim your bonsai is up to you and will be informed by how you want your plant to look.

First, plant the Jade Plant in a shallow pot, about 3"-4" deep, that has a drainage hole. We highly recommend using this Bonsai Jack Gritty Mix as soil. Aim to grow it in partial sun.

Succulents are adapted to dry environments so they tend to succumb to rot in enclosed, non-draining terrariums. It is challenging but possible to grow them in open terrariums. You can find tips to make it work at the link below.

Crassula ovata Jade Plants can cause some digestive issues when consumed, so to be on the conservative side, we do not consider any Crassula to be pet-safe.
