does anyone have tips for taking care of a chinese money plant / friendship plant? I ordered one online because I can never find them in my area and it’s always droopy / losing a leaf every few days. TIA :)

Water it when the pot is very light/letting it fully dry out. Most importantly, 6 hours of sunlight a day is preferred. Terracotta pots are great for this type of plant, also make sure to not oversize or undersized the pot. Cleaning the leaves every 2-3 months to get dust off, helping the plant to absorb more light. I’ve been doing all of these and mine is great! Also, if you cut the ends of each stem off at the top, it’ll grow double back, so usually 2 more stems and help to make it bushier. It’s a very slow growing plant. Lastly, wrinkled leaves means it needs water, these usually go after watering, if you can bend a leaf, it also needs water. But i just wait until it’s fully dry/the pot is light weight.

This is for the jade plant if that’s what you’re referring to.
