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.

Awesome, but not the best squeakers.
Color: Purple
I bought the orange gecko for my 5-month-old Corgi puppy. He absolutely loves it. He came up with a "game" (sort of) where if I pick it up and start squeaking one of the ends/squeakers really quickly over and over, he'll grab the other end/squeaker and start doing the same thing with me. It was really cute until one of the squeakers stopped working about a week after I bought it... but I guess the toy wasn't too expensive, and he doesn't really seem to mind that one of the squeakers doesn't work anymore. I might buy another next time I do an Amazon order (so I can get the free shipping) and see if it lasts a little longer.

Great Toy For a Great Price
Color: Purple
My Aussie loves toys and plays with them as though she is a small child. She has a basket and will go to the basket and dig through it until she finds what she is looking for. Lately she has been using the bungee gecko as her toy of choice. She gets bored easily and will rip the stuffing out of most toys, the fact that this one has lasted 6 weeks or so is impressive with no rips, holes or missing limbs. Her favorite way to play is to come over to me and nudge me to play tug of war and we have broke many toys this way but so far we can play tug a war several minutes at a time and the gecko is still in one piece. For the price which is considerable less than some of her other toys I have already ordered a couple of replacements for the future. This is a great well built dog toy that has has a lot of give and can be stretched without ripping.

No longer as durable
Color: Purple
I have one of these that has made it through 2 dogs but now the bungee is stretched out. It's been such a well loved toy I recently got another one. They've changed the plush fabric. The old one was indestructible. This new one is much thinner and easily torn. I wish they would go back to the old plush fabric.

Great Toy!
Color: Orange
This has been a great toy for our 11 week old German Shepherd. She absolutely loves it. I can get out all of her toys and lay them out with the exception of her "Lizzy" and she will immediately go to her toy bin and get it herself. Needless to say it is her favorite toy. She has had it a week now and she plays with it a lot, chewing and squeaking. It's a pretty amazing toy to have held up this long already and to date shows no sign of wear or damage. Lizzy just keeps going and going.
