Ensure the jade plant is in well-draining soil to prevent waterlogged roots. A mix of cactus or succulent soil with perlite or sand works well. This allows excess water to drain away quickly, keeping the roots healthy.

Place the jade plant in a bright location with indirect sunlight. While it can tolerate some shade, it thrives in bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, so filtered light or a few hours of morning sun is ideal.

Jade plants are sensitive to drafts and temperature fluctuations. Keep them away from cold drafts from windows or doors during winter months. Sudden temperature changes can cause leaf drop or stress the plant.

Regularly prune dead or damaged leaves to encourage new growth and maintain the plant's shape. Use clean, sharp scissors or pruning shears to avoid introducing diseases.
