Green Elephant Bush
Portulacaria afra
Hailing from South Africa, her thick reddish brown succulent stems and tiny green leaves set her apart. In the wild, she is a popular snack for elephants.
Bright, indirect light. Can take a few hours of direct sun.
Every 10-14 days.
Loves pets (unless they're elephants).
SM: ~6-8" tall and a 4" pot.
That two-week safari in South Africa is looking good.
Pro-tip: She goes dormant in colder months, so you can slow watering down to once a month.
