With its creamy-white and green oval leaves, reddish stems, and gently trailing habit, Portulacaria afra ‘Variegata’ is a much-loved succulent that brings brightness and structure to any indoor collection. Also known as Rainbow Bush, this variegated form of the Elephant Bush is drought-tolerant, fast-growing, and ideal for sunny windowsills or even bonsai projects.

Scientific Name
Portulacaria afra ‘Variegata’ (also known in some classifications as Crassula afra ‘Variegata’)

Synonyms
Crassula afra ‘Variegata’, Rainbow Bush, Mini Jade (not to be confused with Crassula ovata)

Common Name
Variegated Elephant Bush, Rainbow Bush, Miniature Jade Plant

Origin
Native to South Africa, Eswatini, and Mozambique – typically found in arid scrublands

Light
Thrives in bright light with at least a few hours of direct sun. South- or west-facing windowsills are ideal. Insufficient light can lead to dull colouring and leggy growth.

Water
Water thoroughly only when the soil has completely dried out. In spring and summer, this may be every 1–2 weeks. In winter, water once a month or less. Overwatering is the main risk.

Humidity
Prefers dry indoor air. Avoid high humidity or over-misting.

Soil
Use a sharply-draining succulent or cactus mix. Add extra perlite, pumice, or sand to improve drainage if needed.

Food
Feed every 4–6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) with a diluted cactus or succulent fertiliser. Do not feed in winter.

Temperature
Ideal range is 18–26°C. Can tolerate down to 5°C if kept dry. Not frost-hardy.

Pet-safe
Yes – non-toxic to pets and children.

Sprouts Top Tips
This plant responds well to pruning – pinch out the tips to encourage bushier growth and keep it compact. Can be trained as a miniature tree or left to trail naturally.

Extras
Stems may become woody over time, giving the plant a mini-tree appearance – great for bonsai styling.

Did You Know?
In its native habitat, this plant plays an important role in carbon sequestration and is often used in reforestation projects in South Africa.

An instant favorite for my one year old pup!
Size: Small, Size: Small
I came across these randomly while looking for presents for my one year old 10lb chi-mix. I gave her one to start with just to make sure it wasn’t flimsy & she wasn’t going to destroy it because she is definitely a chewer. She was instantly OBSESSED! These are now her most treasured squeakies. They’re the perfect size for her too and I’m happy to say they’ve held up well to her pouncing/jumping on them constantly. They’re definitely not quiet but we get an absolute kick out of watching the way she plays with them. If I could give 10 stars I would. Almost two months later and the novelty hasn’t worn off to her. I’ve saved them to my lists just in case we ever need to replace them for any reason. I’m not sure she’ll ever love a toy as much as these

Squeak is not super loud! Family fun!
Size: Small
My small dog loves these toys. He detects them the very moment they enter the house, even more if the package has been opened. I used to give him one at a time because he would favor the newest one for quite a long time. Now he sniffs them out no matter where I store them. The squeakers have fallen INTO the toy rather than going down his throat, and they're rather difficult to chew out of place. They do collect quite a bit of debris and hair from the floor, so a good rinsing is needed sometimes. My little 13 lb terrier mix loves them with and without squeakers. For this dog, it's the best toy we've found. We can do a little tug of war with it, throw and fetch, and he's even copied various ways we squeak the toy. I don't know what your pup will think, but these seem the most safe, longest-lasting, most engaging toy he has. If we step on it by accident, he always comes running for some fun. Let us know if you have come up with a new game! We call one "Puppy Puzzle" where we bury it under various objects such as blankets, boxes, and find ways to squeak it when he can't quite find it. It's a daily ritual. We also like to be creative when we introduce new ones by hiding them, or mixing them in with older ones. For us, it is a family interactive toy. He loses interest faster when playing alone. Plus, because of its size and random bouncing directions, it often gets out of pup's reach under furniture or in spaces too small for him to get it himself. We like playing with our dog, so it works for us. We've tried other toys with similar sizes and appearances, but for whatever reason, this is the one that has become part of daily life, and there appears to be no boredom yet after 2 years. Love!

Yes!
Size: Medium
Durable. Squeak doesn't last forever with my aggressive chewers but crinkle does. Best balls.
