Okay, so my Mum got me a jade plant for my birthday (it be a month ago). She said it will be a good plant for me because it doesn't want that much watering. I obviously must've thought the jade plant is kinda close to a cactus so I didn't water it for more or less 2 or 3 weeks, and then I found out it be half dried (it's within the corner of my room and I don't look at it often). I tried watering it once a couple of days, but then yesterday it died completely.
Any accident for it to arise from the dead? I really want it to be vigorous and pretty :(
It's staying in the room warmth all the time, and the room is bright during the sunshine - but the plant is on the wall opposite to the window, if that's any help.
Answers:    No, it won't come rear. You will have to purchase another. It is a succulent, but grows contained by the jungle, so it does need dampen once or twice a week.
It depends on what type of plant it is!and you might be able to cut the cactus done and it will re-grow beside the help of some fertilizer!
