I’m Georgette, and native to southern Africa. I am an evergreen succulent shrub known for my reddish brown stem and variegated cream and green leaves. Keep me in a location that has direct sunlight for at least 4 hours a day. A southern or western facing window works best. To water, submerge my pot up to the rim for 5-10 minutes and let me drain thoroughly. Do this about once every 10-14 days, or when my pot feels 1/2 lighter. Dry, warm apartments might make me dry out quicker, so monitor the weight of my pot. Under the right conditions I grow vigorously-- prune exploding growth twice a year to keep me in shape. My clippings are easily propagated! In the warmer months, you can take me outside for warm air and natural sun.  Symbolism: In Feng Shui, the Elephant Bush's Earth element symbolizes balance and stability, with the capacity to foster a solid foundation in the home. Interestingly, the Elephant Bush has 'Kun' Chi or energy, embodying maternal care, nurturing, love, and care. Cons
