Question
I have a beautifulJade. It's groving really nicely, but I noticed few days ago that leaves have a bite marks - just like a human my bite on a sandwich. So far, it's only few of these leaves, eaten halfway. Please help. I dare to lose this plant.


Answer
Hi Anna,

For unknown reasons, Jade plants often develop some deformed leaves that look like they have been bitten. It is not a cause for concern. Unless, yours has leaves that have open wounds, then I don't think anything is eating it. In addition, Jades do not attract insect pests that chew on leaves.

Please let me know if any of this is unclear or if you have any additional questions.
