Description

are bear paw succulents poisonous 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.

Low calorie and great for dog training
Flavor Name: Rabbit, Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 3), Flavor Name: Rabbit, Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 3)
A trainer recommended these for training and our dog loves the taste. They are small and easily handled. There are some larger/longer pieces that can easily be broken in half. With these I am not worried about her spoiling her dinner or gaining extra weight. They don't have much of a smell and being dry, my hands stay relatively clean. She has no problem chewing them as the texture is firm but soft being freeze dried. It can be easy to go through them quickly which made buying the three pack an easy decision.

Great for training
These are a great option for training sessions with my young puppies and fit a lot in a training pouch for accessibility. There are a lot of treats for what you pay.

Small quick treat
Flavor Name: Rabbit, Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Great treats. My boys loved them. They do vary in size and quite a few crumbs were left over in the bottom of the bag. No smell and they are not chewy, but cruchy because of the freeze dried process so I know they will hold up over time. Some pieces were thick but not hard. Being that these are freeze dried treats, the longevity should be great!

Absolutely The Best!!
Flavor Name: Rabbit, Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Our dog (Aussie/Border Collie) has a sensitive stomach and these work great for her! She loves all the flavors (especially salmon and turkey & veggies) and at only about a calorie each, it's pretty much impossible for her to over eat. These work GREAT for training treats, too!
