I'm doing some hard pruning on my Jade bonsai (Crassula ovata)
The Jade is a succulent plant with small pink or white flowers and is native to the KwaZulu-Natal and Eastern Cape provinces of South Africa, and Mozambique.

I took alots of pictures of trees and the four faces Buddha.( the one you made is not so bad compare to the original Buddha face .The ribbon tree roots ,areal roots are really awesome and very old 😀

Hello Nigel! It's so great to find another jade enthusiast who loves to convert them into a bonsai style. I live about 3 1/2 hours away however find myself in the Buffalo area often enough that'd I've love to visit your garden and greenhouses. You mentioned in your July 2022 Jade pruning segment about giving your clippings to anyone willing to travel. If you haven't found new homes for them could we arrange to meet up? I've always wanted to have a Crassula Ovata and the Gollum Jade however I just can't afford them. The jades I have now are because my neighbor tossed all the limbs from his 50 year jade unto the lawn clipping pile we share, and I rescued them! I just found 5 more recent tosses an increbdile lucky find again, however just have one specie and would love to expand. I'd love to share photos of what I have manipulated so far and truly hope we can meet up in the next month or two! Sincerely Sonja
