Portulacaria Afra Variegata / 3.5" Pot / Rainbow Elephant Bush /Variegated Elephant Bush/ Full Sun Plant / Low Maintenance

Portulacaria afra ‘Variegata’ is a beautiful shrubby plant with mahogany-colored stems that are accented by highly succulent yellow leaves with green midstripes. The habit of this plant differs from the upright stance of elephant bush in that it is somewhat cascading and spreads quickly laterally, rather than vertically. Often used as a bonsai subject, as the stems are easily trained, and the contrast of the gnarly mahogany stems with the delicate round colorful leaves creates an enticing ambiance. Great as hanging basket in atrium or patio, or as a gracefully cascading bonsai. You will love this house plant!
