My dear friend Dana came down to Red Wing last week and we had a great time. It was so lovely to be able to sit and talk over tea and lunch. A great afternoon for catching up. When she walked through the front door she greeted me with a basket of presents (yay!) Among the treats was a little Jade plant, and a card describing how the Jade is a symbol of friendship. I never knew that this little botanical gem is also called the “friendship tree.” What a sweet and heartfelt gesture. Thanks Dana! Love you!

What a great gift idea! I’ve always loved jade plants but don’t have one in my house. Guess I’ll have to fix that!
I think so too! So pretty. Thanks for commenting 😉
What a great plant – thanks for sharing!! I being the flower/plant no-nothing person that I am, had no idea about this gem! What a great idea to gift your plant loving friends!!! Hope none of mine are reading this, because I foresee christmas presents this year!! ;0)
They look so pretty sitting there on my counter, greeting me whenever I walk in the kitchen 😉 Yes, great Christmas gift idea!
