Jade Plant Care Instructions
In 2001, SSC was founded with a single thriving jade plant—a small but resilient symbol of growth. Our Co-founders, Tad and Tara, nurtured that jade plant alongside the budding company, watching it flourish as SSC grew. Over the years, this original "mother plant" has been repotted a remarkable 10 times, each move a testament to its resilience.
By 2016, it had become a staple of our headquarters in Royersford, PA, where Tad and Tara propagated it into 16 new jade plants, each one thriving. And from these plants, hundreds of cuttings have since been shared with friends, family, and coworkers—a living legacy of our journey and a symbol of good energy and connection.
Now, we’re thrilled to share a piece of this legacy with you. Jade plants, often called “money trees,” are known for bringing positive energy and attracting prosperity. As you nurture this plant, may it bring you as much joy, good fortune, and inspiration as ours have brought us.
