Here’s a shameless pic of mine!

There’s a chance that you tricked it into thinking it’s spring, for lack of better terms.

It’s something I recently learned about in reference to Jade plants that come inside for winter. If you allow them to get a certain small bit of cold before pulling inside, the temperature shifts will force blooms to occur.

I don’t know much more about it, and I’m sure I’m botching the proper concepts here, but it sounds like what you’re experiencing.

I have a couple larger jade (crassula ovata) plants that live outside in the summer and inside in the winter. This year they both started flowering right as I brought them inside. When I read a bit more about it, it seems like a normal technique/trick that folks use to push out flowers.

I’ve never seen them flower before now! Not sure what else may have the same tendencies.

I’m in the process of bringing inside my couple big jades. Yours is so happy! Great work through and through, that takes a long time. Beautiful!

I’m excited for you and to follow along! Looks to be a great start of a project.

Perfectly said. It truly is a shame. My memories of playing PSO on the Dreamcast, ethernet cord strung across the room and all, will always be warm and fuzzy. So at least there’s that.

There are dozens of us. Unfortunately it’s an interest that results in disappointment consistently. Yeehaw Sega milking it!

I hadn’t noticed that until pointed out! I love it and now can’t unsee it.

Thank you!

I’m trying to encourage some trunk thickening while slowly choosing the main branches and overall shape. I try to let this tree grow out thick and dense with very little trimming, then chop it back to a state that will let light through to the lower foliage. That, or chop it when I need room on the rack or more cuttings in the propagation station. Rinse and repeat that a couple times a year and we’re here.

That mostly means clipping off upward growing new shoots to push that growth into lateral or more downward growing shoots.

Holler if you have any other questions or comments! I love trees!
