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.

Simplicity
Style: Refill, Color: Golden Glow, Style: Refill, Color: Golden Glow
All time favorite powder of 15 years 🫶 doesn't clog pores, stays on well all day, and is smooth to apply. A little goes a long way with a moisturizer and toner. Hope to see the pad applicators included in the refills in the near future, I used a teardrop sponge that worked great to cover pores and even tone. I didn't cover my cheek bones to allow natural pigment. Thanks for the wonderful quality over the years 🤗

Wonderful mineral powder foundation
Style: Refill, Color: Warm Sienna, Style: Refill, Color: Warm Sienna
Wow this powder foundation blew all the other powder foundations I’ve tried out of the water. I have this strong yellow undertone to my skin and always struggle, I purchased warm sienna and by all means it’s not dark at all. This foundation leaves a soft natural glow that makes my skin look natural yet covers imperfections very well. It also feels light weight on my skin and lasts 8 hours before it starts to break down with my oily skin but the Danessa Myricks yummy skin blurring balm powder that I use as a primer in universal helps with all that. Highly recommend on mature skin since I’m in my 40’s those pesky fine lines look smooth.

Best foundation ever!!!
Style: Refill, Color: Suntan
I was upset with my old powder foundation that is from another name brand that is advertised a lot for women over 40. I asked my dermatologist to see what she recommended. She said they use Jane iredale. I tried it and I’m so very happy. It actually covers my face and I’m not as self conscious anymore. The color match is great, and the foundation feels so light on your skin.

shade and coverage is nice but..
Style: Refill, Color: Golden Glow
I love this product, especially for a person who is prone to acne and the hyperpigmentation that follows. This gives a nice simple natural coverage to my skin and the additional feat of 20 spf is great. I use it lightly and it covers enough for me to feel that it looks natural. In addition I bought the compact case (sold separately) to hold the product which is cute but really no room to store with a cushion pad for easy reapplication throughout a day. So I would give the product full 5 stars but because the compact case designed for this is sold separately and also isn't designed to really hold a puff cushion, I'd really rate this 4 stars. Great foundation but the seperately sold compact case designed for this is why I lowered by one star.

Beautiful finish!
Style: Refill, Color: Suntan
It blurs uneven skin tone without settling into fine lines and wrinkles. It does not get cakey or change color even after all day wear in the Texas heat!
