Can I pot baby jade plant with other succulents?

Question

I was just given a baby jade plant. I would liketo put it in larger plant with another succulent (aloe, cacti,). I've never cared for succulents so don't know what wouls be a "good mix." Also want to cover with decorative pebbles if possible. Any info, picutures, links would be great!

Answer 1

Yes, I do it all of the time.  I have a jade growing with aloe, hens and chicks and other succulents in about 5-6 different containers.  I usually plant the tallest growing one in the middle and then put the ones that stay closer to the ground all around it.  My succulents take a lot of abuse because I forget to water and fertilize them and they thrive in a semi-desert zone.  Check out the hgtv website in the landscaping section for some ideas.

Answer 2

You are able to plant with the other succulents. whether it will grow. that will have to be another post
