Jade Plant
Crassula ovata
On a forest path near a garden in Kiserian, Nairobi, Kenya. July 2014.
FLOWERS: Five or, rarely four sharply pointed petals are white to pink and are borne in small clusters.
SUCCULENT: A small shrub.
LEAVES: with thick, spatulate leaves. Margins of leaves may acquire red color when exposed to more sunshine.
RANGE: South Africa native, but widely planted and easily propagated in Kenya highlands. I hope people are not still bringing more, exotic plants to Kenya!
FRUIT: Dry capsules.
