Jade Plant Batik (P15c)

Product Name: Jade Plant Batik (P15c)

Portulacaria Afra Variegata, commonly known as Variegated Elephant Bush or Variegated Dwarf Jade Plant, is a cultivar of Portulacaria Afra, a succulent plant native to South Africa. It is a popular houseplant choice due to its attractive foliage and ease of care.

This Jade plant features small, fleshy leaves that are variegated with creamy white or yellow edges, creating an attractive contrast against the green portions of the leaves. The leaves are round or oval-shaped and grow in opposite pairs along reddish stems.

This plant can be propagated through stem cuttings. Take a cutting of a healthy stem, allow it to dry for a few days to form a callus, and then plant it in well-draining soil. The cutting should root within a few weeks, and you can gradually increase watering once new growth appears.

Jade plant Batik is primarily grown as an ornamental plant and is suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation in warmer climates. It can be used in succulent gardens, mixed planters, or as a potted specimen. Additionally, Portulacaria Afra is sometimes used as a bonsai subject due to its small leaves and ability to withstand heavy pruning.
