Dioscorea elephantipes, commonly known as the Elephant's Foot or Turtle Back Plant, is a fascinating caudiciform succulent native to South Africa. This slow-growing plant develops a distinctive, cracked caudex that resembles the rugged bark of an elephant’s foot, making it highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts.

Please note that these are priced by the size of the caudex. Depending on the time of the year, the growth of the vine will vary and may also be dormant.

Distinctive Features:

  • Large, woody caudex with a distinctive cracked surface resembling turtle shells.
  • Vining, deciduous growth habit with twining stems that emerge seasonally.
  • Heart-shaped, bright green leaves that appear during the growing season.
  • Winter-growing species, going dormant in the hotter months.
  • Can reach a caudex diameter of up to 60 cm with proper care over decades.
  • Produces small, inconspicuous yellow-green flowers when mature.

Care Tips:

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect sunlight with some direct exposure; ideal for a sunny windowsill or greenhouse.
  • Water: Water sparingly during the active growth period (autumn to spring), allowing the soil to dry between waterings. Reduce watering significantly during dormancy.
  • Humidity: Tolerates low humidity levels, making it suitable for drier indoor conditions.
  • Media: Requires a well-draining, sandy or gritty mix; cactus or succulent soil with added perlite works well.
  • Temperature: Prefers temperatures between 10-25°C but can tolerate brief drops to 5°C. Protect from frost.
  • Fertiliser: Feed with a diluted cactus fertiliser during the active growing season every 4-6 weeks.
  • Repotting: Rarely needs repotting; only repot when the caudex outgrows its container.
  • Currently entering into summer dormancy. May not have active foliage. (1-11-25)

Slightly repetitive but I did love some things
Format: Kindle
I love this type of story. And omegaverse is one of my all time favorite genres. But there are a few things that pulled me out of my enjoyment while I was reading. It was repetitive at times as well as struggled with telling not showing. So we didn’t always feel like we were experiencing things with the main character. There were also some plot holes but they may still be answered in part 2. Now this isn’t to be said I didn’t enjoy parts of the story. I loved the almost instant love between Mila and Oliver. And how he started changing around her.

delightful read
Format: Kindle
What a delightful read. The characters are awesome, the plot was so good, I loved it. I was intrigued and it kept me wanting more. Told in multiple pov, the book sucks you in and doesn’t let go. I cannot wait to read the next book.

not bad
Format: Kindle
I loved the plot of this book. The characters just didn’t have a lot of depth. The connections and “love” just weren’t communicated very well in the writing. The author didn’t write the sweet psycho trope very well at all either. Lachlan was just a mess of a character.

A Beta Worth Rooting For
Format: Kindle
In Spare, Violet Fox flips the omegaverse on its head, giving us a Beta heroine determined to make her mark. Joining the Beta Trials to support her sick father, she's thrown into a pack that doesn't want her, especially the possessive Alphas. But here's the twist: their sweet Omega turns out to be her scent match. Cue the angst, forbidden tension, and a slow-burn romance that will make your heart ache in the best way. Violet Fox delivers an emotional, refreshing take on the genre, proving Betas aren't "spares." They're stars.

Beta, Alpha, Omega oh my!
Format: Kindle
Omegas are precious and given to Alphas & their packs... but the Betas want in too. To this end, the Beta government is rolling out its trial of assigning a Beta to each Alpha-Omega pack. But forcing a Beta into a pack where they are not wanted will not end well... Of course, no one expected the Omega to fall for the assigned Beta. Great read and cliffhanger
