- I maintenance prune my golden dwarf jade bonsai. Aurea Portilacaria Afra a fantastic variety with leaves that start as bright yellow which look like flowers, turning to lime green, and finally a darker green.
These trees are also known as Portulacaria Afra, Elephant Bush, and Spekboom.

Thanks so much for watching!! 🌳
Have you considered cutting off the bottom branches and making more into a classic shape?
Great suggestion!! I am still growing this out, so anything is on the table. It is thickening up nicely with all the foliage, so I will probably do that for another year or so and then look at moving it forward. Thanks for watching! 😀
Love them, PAs skews me
Agreed! Such amazing trees to work with as bonsai or even potted plants. Thanks for watching the channel!!! ❤️🌲
What do you use for pest control on your ports?
Indoors, I most often use 70% isopropyl alcohol and just keep hitting it with that until they are gone. Outdoors I’ll either use alcohol or just spray the tree with a jet of water which usually moves them on.
Outdoors the birds, etc pretty much keep them pest free. I generally only have mealies indoors in the unheated area that I need to watch for and a few aphids that always seem to sneak in on the trees in the fall. Occasionally spider mites. Again, just the 70% alcohol makes pretty short work of them. Check out my channel I have a video on how I do it.
Thanks for watching! 😀
