About Jade Bonsai Formal Upright Style

The jade tree plant is part of a plant classification known as succulents. The jade plant has thick, glossy, deep green, oval shaped leaves and thick, brown stems. The Jade has a thick trunk and a fine branch structure with thick oval green succulent leaves.

During autumn sometimes small white flowers appear, but only when the tree has experienced droughts in the season. The bark is green and soft when young, becoming red-brown when it ages. The formal upright style is a very common form of Bonsai. For this style, tapering of the upright-growing trunk must be clearly visible.
The trunk must, therefore, be thicker at the bottom and must grow increasingly thinner with the height. Idea location for this bonsai is the sunny window sill, terrace, balcony, patio, outdoor garden, etc.
