Portulacaria
Pot Cultivation
This plant prefers bright light and a soil mixture consisting of four parts sandy loam and one part of equal quantities of sand and crushed brick. They need great drainage so fill about a quarter of the pot with crocks, and over that rough leaves. Keep the soil moist from April to October and throughout the winter months, water only enough to keep the stems from shriveling up.Propagation
Cuttings can be taken at any time of the year, although spring and summer are the best times.P. afra |
