On another note, need some care and ID help! Is this a Jade plant or Elephant Bush? Sadly it is dropping leaves like crazy! The leaves look withered too. Here’s a photo. Any advice is greatly appreciated 🙂‍↕️

This looks like an elephant bush.

Looks like elephant bush to me. I have a couple of them. Mine did better after i pulled it a bit back from the west facing window i had them in. Are you giving it a good soak when you water and then letting it dry out?
