BOTANY | Succulent plant Portulacaria Afra is originally from South Africa and is also called Spekboom or Elephant plant. It is one of their favorite snacks, the remains that the elephants leave behind serve as cuttings that will form new plants.

PLANT CARE | Like most succulents, this Portulacaria Afra requires little care. When repotting, use a fast-draining soil and only water when the soil is dry, about once a week in the warm months and every other week in the colder months. Give organic liquid plant food from Botanopia once a year in the summer .

FLOWER POT | The kraft paper pot is waterproof for several weeks to months, depending on the water needs of the plant. The pot is 100% biodegradable and plastic-free. As soon as moisture spots appear in the soil, the pot is no longer watertight and it is best to repot the plant. After repotting, the pot can be handed in with the waste paper to be recycled.
