So, I got these two together from a Nursery online the plant on the right is the Dwarf Jade and the one on the left is supposed to be a Chinese Elm-as that is what I bought. But, this Chinese Elm does not look like the ones on this site. Could you please confirm it? Or if it isn't a Chinese elm could you please tell me what it is.
Thank you,

Carol

To the left chinese elm, ulmus parvifolia.

To the right dwarf jade, portulacaria afra.

Chinese elm is a temperate decidious tree that needs to be outdoors all year. It likes a lot of water.

Dwarf jade is a south african succulent. It can be grown indoors all year, but prefere outdoors in summer. It likes It dry and easily rots if watered too much.
