Portulacaria Afra Tree "Elephant Bush"

Portulacaria afra, a South African native, is also known as Small-Leaf Jade or Elephant Bush (due to it being part of the African elephant's diet). This succulent makes an excellent plant for beginning bonsai enthusiasts due to its easy care and ability to take to many shapes. In its natural environment the may grow as tall as 12 feet.

Because this plant is not a North American native, it cannot be collected in the wild but may be purchased from DallasBonsai.com throughout most of the year.

Tree's Attributes:
The trunk of this fleshy wooded succulent is green on young plants, turning to a smooth reddish-brown as the plant ages. The dark green leaves are small and round, opposite, and thick because of their high moisture retention. The small blossoms range from pale pink to purplish, and will only bloom in winter when the plant senses changes in the amount of sunlight.

Temperature/Lighting/Location:
Elephant Bush Tree is considered a true indoor and outdoor bonsai, tolerant of a wide range of growing conditions. It is, however, a tropical and as such cannot be exposed to long periods of cold; freezing temperatures will kill it. When grown indoors the plant should be exposed to natural sunlight through a window, and if not possible, fluorescent lights placed very close to it. Full outdoor sun in appropriate climates will result in fast growth of foliage.

Watering:
Portulacaria afra, being a succulent, does not need frequent watering. While it will tolerate more water than many bonsai, still, be cautious about over-watering – allow the soil to become nearly dry in between watering. The interesting thing about these plants is that unlike most bonsai, jade gives off clearly visible signs of needing water – the leaves become flattened and may wrinkle. Always use a well-draining soil.

Fertilizing:
Elephant Bush Tree should be fertilized about every four weeks throughout spring and summer with a well-balanced formula. No special mix or instructions are required. This is a fast-growing bonsai when fertilized and cared for properly. Refrain from fertilizing in the winter.

Pruning/Training:
Shapes – informal upright, root-over-rock, slanting, full cascade. Forest arrangements can also be quite striking with this specimen.

These succulent bonsai are difficult to train by wiring. The branches are fragile and tend to break under too much pressure. Pinching foliage and guiding branch growth via pruning are more effective ways of achieving the shape you want. Extensive pruning is easier if the plant is allowed to dry before removing larger branches and roots. Cut flat to the bark rather than concave to minimize scarring.

The weight of the water in jade's leaves will cause the branches to naturally droop, lending to cascade style if the foliage is pinched and guided properly. Control the direction of growth by pinching off at a set of leaves that are growing in your desired direction. Remove the terminal bud from branches to stop their growth. Pinching normally needs to be done each week during the growing season on this vigorously growing bonsai.

5 STARS – The Mistake is sweet, sexy, funny and has the prefect amount of feels! Elle Kennedy ROCKS!
Format: Kindle
The Mistake is the second book on the Off Campus series by Elle Kennedy. The Mistake is Logan’s book and I can honestly say that when I read The Deal, I fell head over heels for this character from the moment I met him. How can you not love John Logan and his cocky grin? John Logan is a player a fact that he makes no excuses for. He is a very well-known member of the Briar University hockey team and because of this; he has no problems getting the female students attention. In fact he has no issues getting any females attention, at all. But lately Logan has realized that he has been hooking up even more frequently than usual, even by his own standards. In fact his friends are noticing it as well, but what they do not know, is that he has a reason for his behavior. He is just not willing to admit it or even consider dealing with it because he is far more comfortable with running away from the problem, then facing it head on. “This obsession with Hannah Wells is really starting to mess with my head. I need to get laid. ASAP.” Grace Ivers is a freshman at Briar University and she is well aware of who John Logan is. Her best friend has been chasing Dean, one of Logan’s teammates for quite some time now with no success. When she bumps into Logan at a party on campus one night, immediately following one of his many hook ups she is struck by his hotness and cocky attitude, but quickly pulls herself out of the lustful fog. John Logan is a player and there is no way he would ever be interested in her, the freshman virgin. Grace also has no interest in being yet another notch on Logan’s seemingly never ending belt loop. When Logan randomly knocks on Grace’s dorm room door one evening looking for a party, she is shocked. What could he possibly want with her? It has to be a mistake… and it is, he has the wrong room but, what happens next as they say is history. Grace and Logan are attracted to one and other and the sexual tension is thick enough to cut with a knife. Lust prevails and they do hook up that night, but Logan gets freaked out and leaves Grace “hanging” immediately afterwards. She is confused and hurt. Logan is totally clueless; he does this all the time, hooks up and runs, but then it hits him, Grace deserves better than that. Grace is better than that. “I made the guy come last night and he didn’t even stick around long enough to kiss me goodbye. So yeah, I have to face the facts: I’m just another girl on a long list of John Logan’s conquests.” “Leaving a girl wanting isn’t just embarrassing. It’s unacceptable.” Grace is not a puck bunny, in fact she doesn’t even like hockey, she prefers football. Logan doesn’t do relationships; he has no time, between Hockey and dealing with his troubled family life. When Logan is finally realizes he has feelings for Grace he doesn’t handle it well at all. He wants what Garrett has with Hannah. He is lonely and the never ending line of hook ups no longer interests him, he’s thinking constantly of Grace, other women no longer interest him at all. But he has screwed up royally; can he ever win Grace back? “It's a damn shame that duels don't play a role in the modern world anymore.” The Deal was the first book I had ever read by this author and I loved it, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on The Mistake. It then got buried on my kindle and I just realized I hadn’t yet gotten to read it and I moved up the list. I’m so very glad that I did, I love Elle Kennedy’s style of writing and being a Canadian I have a real soft spot for handsome, cocky, hockey players. I love that this book was a fabulous balance of sexy and steamy, sweet and sassy, funny and emotional. I love the characters, every single one of them. I especially love that the female main characters are spunky and sassy. The story line was great and I thought that the banter between characters was very amusing. I love that each book has a happily ever after and I’m really excited now to begin reading The Score. I hope that each and every one of the crew is given their own story in this series before it ends, because now I’m addicted. I’m reading The Score next; I’m excited to read Ali and Dean’s story. If you have not yet begun to read this series, I highly recommend it; I am loving this series by this fabulous Canadian author. “This guy continues to surprise me. To awe me. He’s a better person than I am, better than he gives himself credit for, and if I wasn’t sure about it before, then I’m damn well sure of it now. I love him.” “I need you. I can’t stand the thought of being without you.” He releases a shaky breath. “You’re the last person I think about before I go to sleep, and the first person I think about when I open my eyes in the morning. You’re it for me, baby.”

Steamy with Some Good Character Development, But a Little Cliche and Unbelievable
Format: Kindle
This book tells the story of Grace and (Johnny) Logan, a couple who hook up right away and then fall in love as Logan has to make up for the fact that he initially rejects the idea of getting more serious with Grace. The plot is pretty flimsy, although there is decent development of outside conflict, including Logan's alcoholic father and his struggles with his potential hockey career. There are some very steamy scenes--lots of them, actually-- and some cute moments, but in the end, this isn't a particularly memorable story. To be honest, I have a love/hate relationship with this series (I read the first one, too). On one hand, I think Elle Kennedy is a good writer with a flair for dialogue who knows how to script a steamy love scene. She also does a solid job for the most part in fleshing out her main characters, even if supporting characters often seem like walking cliches ("The Overprotective Dad" vs "Alcoholic Dad"; "Rebellious Best Friend" vs. "Straight-Laced Best Friend"). There are a lot of genuinely funny lines, too, even if they're sometimes of the stereotypical frat boy variety (as a lot of the characters are stereotypical frat boys). Speaking of stereotypical frat boys, this dovetails into what I hate about this series. I have to admit to not being a fan of the Greek system in general so that may be a bias that's affecting my reading experience, but there's something over-the-top and a little disconcerting about the way Kennedy depicts both the sex-fueled parties and the conversations between the guys about their sex lives. I'm not saying her portrayal of Greek life is entirely unrealistic, but the scenes have a cliched, obvious feel, and although she means to set a sexy tone, there's something icky about the way these guys get whatever they want, whenever they want it (and it's not just sex on demand, but apparently amazing sex with hot women on demand). All the guys are gorgeous horn dogs who get drunk but never seem to be anything less than smoking hot and cool. Oh, and apparently, all this partying doesn't negatively impact their training regimen). Most of the girls throw themselves at them, either alone or in pairs. Plus, in both books, I had some trouble believing that the heroines really hung out at frat parties and knew the athletes by name. Both Hannah and Grace (and even Ramona, for that matter) struck me as young women more apt to avoid frat parties and maybe hang with the multitude of other non-Greek members who populate a college campus and host off-campus parties. (To that end, how about a hook-up between one of these athletes/frat boys and a young women who has no interest in an athlete/frat boys? I went to a big school, and at least two thirds of the campus probably couldn't identify one athlete by name.) Ultimately, I enjoyed aspects of this book and liked the main characters by the end of the novel (Logan wasn't that appealing for about half of the story, but I warmed to him eventually). And it definitely is more expertly plotted and well written than a lot of other NA novels out there. But if this series is to continue, I'd like to see the formula shaken up. Grade: C+
