# I’ve had this jade for around 8-9 years. It was with me when I was in…

I’ve had this jade for around 8-9 years. It was with me when I was in 6th grade and now I’m a sophomore in college. I first got it from my neighbors jade plant that was massive- around 4 feet tall. She gave me a clipping that was only a couple inches and I’ve kept it ever since. She passed away two years ago but I’m glad I still have part of her jade :)

Jades are the best! Good job keeping her from such a young age.
