Avonia papyracea

Sold out

$12.25

Sold out

This is a small plant which grows long thin branches covered in little green leaves, which are then covered in white scales to reflect sunlight. In nature it grows in full sun, camouflaged among quartz rocks so they can be very tough to spot! As it grows it develops more branches from the base to form a pretty cluster. Forms cute short lived flowers at the ends of the branches.

Soil
Use a very well draining soil mix. Store bought cactus and succulent mix often retains too much water. You can add gritty materials like pumice, lava rock, or perlite to loosen it up and improve drainage. Your mix should be at least half gritty ingredients. Use a pot with drain holes so the soil can dry out. 

Water
Soak your plants thoroughly, then let them dry out completely before watering again. Frequency will depend on your climate. Check for dryness by sticking your finger into the top of the soil, or looking into the drain holes at the bottom of the pot. 

Bare Root Shipping
Most of our plants ship bare root to save on shipping cost. This means the plant will not include a pot or soil. Some plants are shipped in the pot to avoid damage.
