Description

bear paw succulent seeds Cotyledon ladismithiensisIt's easy to see where the common name for this plant comes from. With their fluffy texture and distinctive shape, each leaf of this succulent looks like a tiny, green paw. Silvery green in colour, each leaf grows directly off central stems, with new growth sprouting at the top of each stem. And if you even need another reason to love it, this plant is easygoing and light on care needs. Give it a decent amount of sun and water it every now and again

It's easy to see where the common name for this plant comes from. With their fluffy texture and distinctive shape, each leaf of this succulent looks like a tiny, green paw. Silvery-green in colour, each leaf grows directly off central stems, with new growth sprouting at the top of each stem. And if you even need another reason to love it, this plant is easygoing and light on care needs. Give it a decent amount of sun and water it every now and again (once the soil has dried out) and this cute & fluffy succulent will reward you with more of its adorable foliage.

Scientific Name
Cotyledon tomentosa subsp. ladismithiensis (small cup plant, woolly species, subspecies from Ladismith, South Africa)

Synonyms: Cotyledon ladismithiensis

In the Crassulaceae family, this plant was first published in 1936 as Cotyledon ladismithensis, this was updated following a 1977 paper which found that it is in fact a subspecies of C. tomentosa

Common Name(s)
Bear's Paw, Bear Paw Succulent, Bear Paw Cactus, Fuzzy Cotyledon

Origin
This plant is native to rocky outcrops between the Laingsburg, Ladismith and Muiskraal regions of South Africa

Light
Your Bear Paws will do best with some direct sun. A windowledge facing east, west or south should work well. If you're putting it somewhere very bright, make sure to acclimatise it gradually to avoid sunburn. If it isn't getting enough light it will grow leggy and start to lose its colour.

Water
Let the soil dry out totally between waters, and when you water, make sure it gets a good soak. It's useful to grow in a pot with really good drainage with succulents like this one.

Humidity
Bear Paws prefer low to average indoor humidity. Avoid placing it in overly damp or humid environments to prevent rot.

Soil
Plant in a well-draining cactus or succulent mix. Added perlite, grit or sand in these mixes can improve drainage. Repot every 2-3 years to refresh the soil or when the plant outgrows its pot.

Food
Feed every couple of months in the spring-summer growing season. Feeding is less important in winter so you can pause feeding until the spring.

Temperature
Thrives in temperatures between 18-26°C. Protect from frost and temperatures below 5°C, as this plant is not frost-tolerant.

Pet-safe
No, this plant is toxic to pets and small humans.

Sprouts Top Tips
The fuzzy 'bear paw' leaves can trap dust, so gently clean them with a soft brush or by blowing air on them to keep the plant looking its best and ensure it can still access the sunlight.
In ideal conditions, this plant can produce clusters of pink-orange, bell-shaped flowers on long stems during the growing season, adding a vibrant pop of colour.

PetSafe Busy Buddy Refill Ring Dog Treats
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 16)
Great! My Baby Pearl Anne loves them. And, she won't normally play with anything else. The Vet says it's due her being in a HORRIBLE Puppy Mill. She never had a puppyhood. She is still Neurotic, even after having been her parent for over 4 years. I would definitely like to get my hands on these people, if I knew who they were. She was found her on a VERY busy intersection way up north in the Texas town where I live. I don't normally go in this neighborhood, so I didn't see her on the street. My best friend, who died just 4 years ago on the 18th of March, had a ex coworker. Leslie(my best friend),KNEW I wanted a dog. I fell in love with her dog: a Miniature Schnauzer. One day Leslie's coworker called her. She said they had found a dog on the street. The coworker said that she couldn't keep anymore dogs. She has 3. So, when they described her, I knew I wanted her! She's a rare pure white Miniature Schnauzer. She was skinny, shaking, with horribly matted hair. She was scared to death, and freezing to death. I put her in a towel, and took her the Vet. And, she said she had worms, was dehydrated, and malnourished. not anymore. She's my baby, my child. Who is now spoiled to death. Sorry this is so long, but, I really needed to tell her story.

If your dog pops with his canines and shreds with his front teeth, this is for you. I have nothing but praise for this toy.
Size: One Size, Style: Bumpy Ball
This is one of the few balls I have purchased that my dog does not destroy. I am surprised at the negative reviews here and have been doing some thinking about why one dog destroys this ball and another does not. Perhaps it is the type of chewer we own? Or because he has a narrow jaw rather than a broad one like a pit bull? My Airedale Terrier likes to shred, preferring to use his back teeth to pop or crush and front teeth to pull apart tennis balls, stuffed animals and the like. I don't know if that will help anyone in making the decision to buy or not to buy this toy. The ball has many dimples where my dog's teeth have sunk in but he has yet to take a chunk out of it. I bought two of these from Marshall's three or four months ago and I play with my dog twice a day, so lots of use here. After I realized what I'd found I promptly ordered two more from Amazon because I wanted to insure I would have them around for a long time. All I can say is that this toy has been a lifesaver for me. My extremely active one year old Airedale Terrier needs a lot of exercise and this ball satisfied that need for us. It is fun for him and I giggle at his antics as he attempts to follow the unpredictable path of the bumble ball. I throw the ball for him from my porch, trying to toss it so it goes over our truck, which my husband leaves in the driveway. If the ball hits the truck, no harm done and more unpredictable for my boy! I can toss the ball around the house without worrying it will break a window. My dog loves to pick up toys and throw them in the air when he plays. He tossed a marrow bone into the air and when it landed I had a nice half inch gash in our coffee table. No more marrow bones in the house for him. I have nothing but praise for this toy and am grateful to have found it.

Great Toy
Size: One Size, Style: Stick
I breed German shepherds. This toy is a soft formed stick made of a memory foam/ rubber polymer. It’s light weight, very durable, floats and my German Shepherds love retrieving this toy. They are not indestructible but they are a great chewing toy for their price. I usually buy several at a time. This toy will help clean their teeth and is soft enough not to damage their teeth. It’s a favorite item for my dogs.

SPECTACULAR dog chew toy!
Size: One Size, Style: Ball
If you look at my profile, you will see that I have bought and reviewed a LOT of dog toys! My boxer is an "aggressive" chewer and we go through dog toys quickly in my house. This has been one of my very favorite chew toys that I have ever purchased. This company sells quite a few of these chew toys in different shapes. This ball is made from a very light foam rubber (I think) material. When I showed it to my husband, he said "that won't last 5 minutes" and I had my doubts too. However, this ball has proven to be EXTREMELY durable! Because it is made from the foam material, it has a lot of tooth sized holes in it after she chews it, but she has been unable to chew the toy apart. I bought another of these chew toys made from the same material in a different shape thinking surely there was some accident that the toy had held up for so long. Nope, the new toy has held up just as well! The toys float in water and are very light and easy to throw. Overall, I will be buying more of these toys and would recommend this product!
