Crassulata arborescens !
From my ancestral savannah southwest continent
Hardy, attractive and domestic
Hither you come...soaked in blessing
The jewel of the sands of time
Sturdy, evergreen and pleasant
Jade plant

Symbol of tolerance, endurance and viability
Behold your limbs and feature
As this stage real you approach
Glorious, attractive and sweetly scented:
Jade plant

Light-pink and white flower cluster-like
In harmony with all the seasons of life:
You're a bundle of love and hope
Blooming in April...Kimo...me...and all:
JADE.
