About Portulacaria Afra 'Variegata' (4 inch)

Wow, the Portulacaria Afra 'Variegata,' also known as Rainbow Bush, is a stunning succulent with many branches that create a lush look. Its pink stems and smooth, fleshy green leaves with cream-colored rounded edges give it a unique appearance. And let's remember its lavender star-shaped flowers that bloom in late spring and early summer! The plant's dense, rounded leaves have a lovely color and texture that will brighten any space.

How to care for Portulacaria Afra 'Variegata' (4 inch)

Sun/Temperature: Firstly, this lovely plant requires at least 6 hours of bright, direct, or diffused light. So, it's best to place it on an indoor balcony or windowsill where it can get enough sunshine. Please, avoid exposing it to too much direct sunlight that could harm its foliage during summer. Rainbow Bush thrives in temperatures between 65-80°F. So, make sure to keep it in a warm and cozy spot. However, if the temperature drops below 30°F, it can damage the plant and even cause it to die.

Soil/Watering: If you're looking for a substrate that allows for proper airflow, cactus and succulent potting soil are excellent options. Alternatively, you could customize your substrate mix by combining half-regular potting soil with sand, vermiculite, or other gravel materials. As for watering your Rainbow Bush, the soak-and-dry method is ideal. Yet, it's important to note that during the winter, when the plant is dormant, it's best to avoid watering it. If you notice its leaves looking shriveled, a small amount of water will do the trick.

Pot: To keep your succulent thriving, choosing a pot with drainage holes is essential - this ensures proper drainage and allows the roots to breathe. These plants are also perfect for smaller containers, growing slowly and will stay within their space. Consider hanging baskets for an added touch of beauty.

Propagation: You can quickly propagate your succulent using the cutting method. First, choose a perfect spot and grab a sharp and sterilized knife to cut the Rainbow Bush branches. Let the cuttings rest in an excellent place to heal, and then apply cinnamon to disinfect the wounds. Next, stick the cuttings into dry soil and moisten the surface using a spray bottle or watering tool. Once the roots have grown, you can switch to the soak and dry watering method. This method is easy and effective in keeping your plant healthy. 

Pests and diseases: To ensure your plant's well-being, avoid overwatering by checking that the soil and pots are well-drained and that excess water drains off the bottom of the pot only when the soil is dry. Watch for mealy bugs, red spiders, and whiteflies, which can infest your plant. But don't worry; you can quickly eliminate these pests using a natural neem oil solution. 

Fertilization: If you want to keep your Portulacaria Afra 'Variegata' healthy and happy, fertilize it every month in late spring. You can use a houseplant fertilizer diluted to half strength to give it the necessary nutrients. Your plant will surely appreciate it!

Great Gel Wrist Pad
Size: Full Size
My husband games with the boys every weekend, and he had finally splurged on a gaming system and new monitors. I bought this for him so he can rest his wrists while using the keyboard. He says the quality is great, length perfectly fits the keyboard, it does feel like it is cooling, nice design, very durable so far, not too high so his wrists sit comfortably for typing. Would purchase again but it looks like we won't need to as it is holding up very well.

Comfortable, Supportive, and Worth Every Dollar
Color: Black, Item Shape: Classic, Color: Black, Item Shape: Classic
I didn’t realize how much tension I was carrying in my legs and lower back until I started using this footrest. The memory foam is firm but comfortable — it doesn’t flatten out like cheaper ones. I love that it’s height-adjustable, so I can customize it depending on how I’m sitting. It instantly improved my posture and took pressure off my hips and lower back, especially during long desk and gaming sessions. The build quality feels premium, it stays in place on the floor, and the cover is soft and easy to clean. After using it for a few days, I noticed less stiffness and way better overall comfort while sitting. If you spend hours at a desk, do yourself a favor and get this. Simple upgrade, huge difference. Highly recommended.

Foot rest
Color: Gray, Item Shape: Classic
It's very sturdy. It's very comfortable. It's not too soft. It's not too hard. I like it. I flip it when I sit in my chair when I'm on my iPad I can use the lower level when I'm relaxing. I flip it over and I use the the round part of it. It's just perfect for me.. I have plantar fasciitis and it really helps the heels of my feet.

Good product.
Color: Black, Item Shape: Classic
It is helpful for sure. I had knee surgery and this helped me keep my knee comfortable while working. I wish it was able to raise my leg up a bit more but for the price this is fine.
