Leaf shoots from trunk - Jade was created by Regansl

Posted 3 years 1 month ago #67823
My Jades have never sprouted leaves from the trunk. I have tried to find out what causes the sprouting and how to encourage it, if possible, but have not had any luck. Perhaps I am not certain of the search terms to use.

Can someone please help me?

The picture shown is not mine and the plant is not mine. I found it to use as an example.

Thank you!!

sunlight is all you need.

Keep in mind there is Jade (crassula ovata) and Elephant bush, Portulacaria afra, sometimes referred to as mini-jade. They are quite distinct species, yet somehow often confused..
