Crassula Ovata Hobbit Jade

The Hobbit Jade has spoon-shaped leaves that curl inward rather than trumpet outward. Its foliage is shorter, broader, and more curved compared to ‘Gollum.’ This gives it a softer look while still showing red accents along the edges in strong light.

If you enjoy tubular jades, you might also want to check out Skinny Fingers Jade, which has long, slender tubular leaves for a sleek, modern look, or Gollum Jade with its distinctive trumpet-shaped tips. Comparing these varieties helps you choose the jade that best suits your collection or display.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR ROOTING CUTTINGS
Insert the cutting into the soil about 1" deep. When the soil is dry, water the plant sparingly. Roots should form within two weeks. Keep the plant in bright shade during the rooting period. To prevent the leaves from getting burnt, gradually acclimatize the plant to outdoor conditions.
