Portulacaria Afra 'Elephant Bush' 4" Sculptural
Portulacaria Afra, also known as Elephant Bush, is a compact, succulent shrub with rounded, glossy green leaves on reddish stems. Often mistaken for jade plant, it's even more drought-tolerant and grows in a tidy, architectural form — perfect for bright windowsills or minimalist plant shelves.
Styled in a 4” sculptural ceramic pot with drainage. Rooted in our breathable, well-draining Androots soil blend — no repotting necessary.
Care Instructions
Light: Loves bright, indirect light and can tolerate some direct sun. Lower light slows growth.
Water: Allow soil to dry out completely between waterings. Water sparingly — overwatering is the biggest risk.
Humidity: Thrives in dry indoor air. No added humidity needed.
Soil: Requires excellent drainage — our mix includes potting soil, orchid bark, charcoal, and perlite.
Temperature: Prefers 65–85°F. Keep away from freezing temps.
Growth Tips: Grows slowly and stays compact. Can be pruned for shape and easily propagated from stem cuttings.
