About Portulacaria Afra 'Variegata' (4 inch)

Wow, the Portulacaria Afra 'Variegata,' also known as Rainbow Bush, is a stunning succulent with many branches that create a lush look. Its pink stems and smooth, fleshy green leaves with cream-colored rounded edges give it a unique appearance. And let's remember its lavender star-shaped flowers that bloom in late spring and early summer! The plant's dense, rounded leaves have a lovely color and texture that will brighten any space.

How to care for Portulacaria Afra 'Variegata' (4 inch)

Sun/Temperature: Firstly, this lovely plant requires at least 6 hours of bright, direct, or diffused light. So, it's best to place it on an indoor balcony or windowsill where it can get enough sunshine. Please, avoid exposing it to too much direct sunlight that could harm its foliage during summer. Rainbow Bush thrives in temperatures between 65-80°F. So, make sure to keep it in a warm and cozy spot. However, if the temperature drops below 30°F, it can damage the plant and even cause it to die.

Soil/Watering: If you're looking for a substrate that allows for proper airflow, cactus and succulent potting soil are excellent options. Alternatively, you could customize your substrate mix by combining half-regular potting soil with sand, vermiculite, or other gravel materials. As for watering your Rainbow Bush, the soak-and-dry method is ideal. Yet, it's important to note that during the winter, when the plant is dormant, it's best to avoid watering it. If you notice its leaves looking shriveled, a small amount of water will do the trick.

Pot: To keep your succulent thriving, choosing a pot with drainage holes is essential - this ensures proper drainage and allows the roots to breathe. These plants are also perfect for smaller containers, growing slowly and will stay within their space. Consider hanging baskets for an added touch of beauty.

Propagation: You can quickly propagate your succulent using the cutting method. First, choose a perfect spot and grab a sharp and sterilized knife to cut the Rainbow Bush branches. Let the cuttings rest in an excellent place to heal, and then apply cinnamon to disinfect the wounds. Next, stick the cuttings into dry soil and moisten the surface using a spray bottle or watering tool. Once the roots have grown, you can switch to the soak and dry watering method. This method is easy and effective in keeping your plant healthy. 

Pests and diseases: To ensure your plant's well-being, avoid overwatering by checking that the soil and pots are well-drained and that excess water drains off the bottom of the pot only when the soil is dry. Watch for mealy bugs, red spiders, and whiteflies, which can infest your plant. But don't worry; you can quickly eliminate these pests using a natural neem oil solution. 

Fertilization: If you want to keep your Portulacaria Afra 'Variegata' healthy and happy, fertilize it every month in late spring. You can use a houseplant fertilizer diluted to half strength to give it the necessary nutrients. Your plant will surely appreciate it!

Good treats
Dogs love these! We have Chihuahuas and have to cut these in half for them as a while one is too large.

Healthy, Slightly Soft/Chewy Treat!
VERY pleased to have found these! Wanted something to offer Mookie as a "special treat" (a step up from Milkbones, but NOT long-lasting) that was healthy and easily digestible. He wasn't sure what to make of them at first... they're fairly soft and a little chewy, and they just smell like FRESH sweet potatoes -- not any fake meat or seasoning. Once he started chewing, however, he got very excited about the new treat, and now when he hears the bag being handled/opened, he comes running and does his little happy dance! We'll be keeping these on hand because the quality and reasonable price - combined with the LACK of tummy distress and his enjoyment - make this a "go-to" special reward.

A Nutritional Treat!
My German Shepherd loves this so much, I sometimes use it as a training treat! Sweet Potato is beneficial to dogs. The only complaint I have is the size consistency from bag to bag.

They used to be soft and moist but not now
These used to be one of my dogs’ favorite sweet potato treats, but they’ve gotten too hard and thick to cut for their morning snack or cut for their puzzle pieces. Because they’re not only too hard to cut, they’re also too hard for them to eat. Both, my Maltese and Shih Tzu love sweet potato treats, but they leave the dry ones behind. Since something made the Shih Tzu so sick that I had to spend a small fortune at the vet trying to make her better, she avoids all dry treats now and unfortunately that includes a lot of necessary nutrients. I hope these go back to being soft and moist the way they used to be!

A favorite healthy treat for my 6 pups!
My six dogs absolutely love these treats! I just ordered my third bag.I love knowing they are healthy and good for dogs with sensitive stomachs. The smell is great and reminds me a little bit of Thanksgiving. Each bag has several different sized treats so I can give my bigger dogs a bigger one and smaller dogs a smaller piece. They are wavy like a ruffle potato chip, but chewy, which is great because that means it takes my pups a minute or two to eat. They are a great price because my local grocery store sells the same type of treat in a smaller size bag at a higher price than these.
