Hello everyone, Good evening dear community members, nice to meet you and have a happy weekend.
Before I want to introduce myself first, I @diablo-elnino just joined here, I found out or got to know this community when the community curated one of my posts, then I started stalking this community account and I liked it then I decided to join the subscribe community and want to participate in sharing various things about succulents or cacti.
So friends, on this occasion I want to share the succulent plants in my yard, I have several and even quite a lot of flowering plants in my yard. However, this time I want to share a post about succulent plants or hanging flowers that we often talk about.
OK friends, below are some pictures of the hanging flower succulent plants that I have prepared. Here he is:
I was curious about the language or scientific name of this succulent plant and I searched on Google and found it. It turns out this plant is a type of Portulacaria afra plant (known as elephant bush , hog bush , purslane tree , dwarf jade , and spekboom in Afrikaans ).
It is a small-leaved succulent plant found in South Africa . This succulent generally has reddish stems and green leaves , but variegated cultivars are often seen in cultivation.
This plant is easy to care for and can easily be used as a houseplant in a sunny location. In frost-free areas, this plant can be used in outdoor landscapes.
The scientific classification is as follows:
Kingdom: Plantae
Clade: Tracheophytes
Clade: Angiosperms
Clade: Eudicots
Order: Caryophyllales
Family: Didiereaceae
Genus: Portulacaria
Species: P. afra
