''Portulacaria afra'' (known as elephant bush, dwarf jade plant, porkbush and ' in Afrikaans) is a small-leaved succulent plant found in South Africa. ==Description== It is a soft-wooded, semi-evergreen upright shrub or small tree, usually tall. Similar in appearance to the "jade plant" ''Crassula ovata'' (family Crassulaceae), ''P. afra'' has smaller and rounder pads and more compact growth (shorter internodal spaces, down to 1.5 mm). It is much hardier, faster growing, more loosely branched, and has more limber tapering branches than ''Crassula'' once established. Within the genus ''Portulacaria'', it has been shown to be an outlier, relatively unrelated to the other species in the genus, which are all restricted to small ranges in the arid far west of southern Africa.〔P.Bruyns, M.Oliveira-Neto, G.F.
