I have a large potted jade "tree" that I've had for 5 years. I moved from LA to Minnesota a year ago and had the plant indoors last year and then outdoors in full/partial sun until last month. It has off and on been losing leaves and sometimes branches since I moved here. The leaves sometimes have black spots or look eaten away but I see no bugs. Sometimes they are yellow and shriveled. The plant continues to have new growth and is currently flowering. I try not to water it unless it's really dry and the soil is pretty moist right now. I have a big handful of leaves that have fallen off just this week and am concerned it might not survive the winter. I tried to use a "Safe" brand spray because I thought maybe it was spider mites-but a lot of leaves fell off afterwards and it's still having this problem. Is this a bug problem? Mold? Too Little Sun? I don't know maybe it's too big for it's pot and is loosing the leaves because it's root system is too crowded? Maybe I should get a grow light? Any help would be great... Thanks

My advice is to find a sunny location in your home for your Jade and leave it there, even in the summer.
