Portulacaria afra, commonly known as Elephant Bush or Dwarf Jade, is a hardy succulent with small, rounded green leaves and reddish stems, popular for its low-maintenance nature and bonsai-like appearance.

This compact, shrubby succulent features thick, glossy green leaves that grow along woody, reddish-brown stems. Its tidy, branching form and upright growth give it a sculptural quality, and it can be pruned to create a dense, tree-like shape or left to trail naturally. Often used in bonsai and succulent arrangements, Portulacaria afra brings a sense of structure and resilience to any indoor collection.

Portulacaria afra thrives in bright, direct to indirect light and prefers a well-draining soil mix. Water only when the soil is completely dry, as this plant is highly drought-tolerant and prone to root rot if overwatered. It does not require misting and performs well in dry indoor environments. Keep it in a warm, sunny spot and prune occasionally to shape or control its size. With minimal care, it remains a reliable and attractive presence year-round.

Please note that all our plants are natural products, meaning slight variations in size, shape, and colour are to be expected.
