Hi,

I'm looking for a small (5-15cm) a tree-like plant which will live on my work desk. It should also be an easy to maintain and do not grow much.

Currently I do have "gasteria duval" from ikea - it is a easy to have plant, but it becomes bigger and does not look nice anymore :(

Hope for your suggestions! :) Thank you!

In my opinion, jade plants sort of look like trees and don’t grow crazy fast. And as a bonus, they are almost impossible to kill.
