    Hello everyone

    I am a wanna be gardener. I live in an apartment that doesn't allow me to have plants outside. So I started accumulate a large indoor plant collection. And then the bad news hit. Apparently I am allergic to the mold in the soil for indoor plants. Needless to say I gave all my plants to my fiancé for his work. It looks like a jungle! I love to visit his work. But to tell you the truth, I did keep 5 plants at home. I have 3 jades (ones a finger jade), an Aloe and another that I have no clue what it is.
    I am actually having a problem with my Jade and I saw that you guys had tons of helpful info. So I am hoping that you can help me out with the Jades, and maybe even identify what my mysterious plant is.
