Portulacaria Afra- Elephant Bush (Bare Rooted)

Portulacaria Afra is a beautiful and adaptable succulent plant. This plant is Native to South Africa, and sometimes it is also referred to as Elephant Bush; this plant is well-known for its ecological advantages, attractive appearance, and ease of maintenance. The small, spherical, meaty green leaves of the elephant bush grow on reddish-brown stems. It's a popular choice for both indoor and outdoor plantings because of the visual appeal it brings from the contrast between the leaves and stems. It can reach a height of 12 feet in its natural habitat, but when grown indoors, it usually stays much smaller, which makes it perfect for container gardening. It grows in a spreading, bushy manner. The plant can be trimmed to keep it in the proper size and form even if it grows quickly.

Portulacaria Afra grows best in the soil that drains well. Let the soil dry up entirely in between water applications. Overwatering can damage its roots and cause root rot. This plant needs bright, indirect sunshine to grow. Additionally, it can withstand direct sunlight, but to avoid leaf burn, it should be gradually acclimated. It is a well-liked houseplant because of its small size and eye-catching leaf. Because of its tiny leaves and capacity to be pruned into complex patterns, it is frequently used in bonsai.
