Price range: See on Amazon
What we liked
- + Portulacaria afra forgives missed waterings better than most bonsai species
- + Fleshy branches back-bud readily, so pruning quickly builds a fuller canopy
- + Medium size gives a thicker starting trunk than small starter plants
Trade-offs
- - Soft branches can snap when wired, so bending needs a gentle hand
- - Overwatering in cool rooms can rot the roots of this succulent
