Portulacaria afra ‘Variegata’ (Variegated Elephant Bush) in 8.5cm Pot

Elephant Bush, Portulacaria afra is an interesting succulent. Its leaves are shaped like elephant ears, which give it the cute nickname “Elephant Bush”.

Elephant Bush is low maintenance and drought tolerant, so it can be grown easily as a houseplant. The soft wood branches can grow quite long, making this succulent a good trailing plant in hanging planters.
