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.

Great quality and color

My favorite shirt in all honesty. I recently had the need to buy a few shirts and this one fits great, and the material is thick but breathable. The colors are great and the quality is always primo from Van Heusen.

Good
Size: X-Large, Color: Riviera Blue, Size: X-Large, Color: Riviera Blue
I got XL which is my normal size. It’s a bit roomy which I think is exactly what I wanted for a work shirt. I wanted it to be a no tuck shirt, but it’s too long for that. I’m really disappointed there, but it’s not a dealbreaker. The sleeves are a bit long, but my arms are short, so I will modify it or roll them up, not an uncommon problem for me with shirts but it’s not too bad either. The material is soft and would be good for summer or under a jacket. Someone posted about the collar being messy and that made me nervous to get this shirt, but I have washed it once and the collar remains in good shape. It stands up properly. The wrinkleproof seems to be pretty good.
