Fun Fact About the Elephant Bush

The Elephant Bush, also known as the Dwarf Jade Plant, is native to South Africa and is an important food source for elephants in the wild, which helps with natural pruning and propagation in its native habitat. This succulent is often mistaken for the jade plant, but it’s more lightweight and grows faster!

Cultivar History of the Elephant Bush

The Elephant Bush has a fascinating history as a vital plant in African ecosystems. Its origins trace back to arid regions of South Africa, where it’s commonly found growing on rocky hillsides and in open woodlands. Not only does it serve as a dietary staple for elephants, but it also plays a crucial role in preventing soil erosion and aiding in water retention in the regions where it grows.

Monster Mutt Loves it
One of the Guardians of our home ranch adores her. First thing she grabs after waking in the morning. Lila Mae enjoys the shape as well as texture. Considering it keeps the South African queen happy and content. Compared to the Boers past toys which they easily bored of easily, the fem stays dillegent in her quest to capture Jaws. Thanks for reading. Postscript, my jacks have no interest. They can't destroy it
