Bear Paw Cotyledon is from the Little Karoo desert region of South Africa in wild places of rocky quartz soil and little rainfall. In its native habitat it grows up to 20″ tall, leggy and stemmy sometimes. Our little, young pots of Bear Paw are pots filled with glowing, milky, celadon green, puffy paws all reaching upwards. Creamy stripes decorate the leaves of this variegated version as well as being “covered in hair” (the meaning of the name Cotyledon); hair so fine it’s like white velvet. Each puffy, fat little paw is tipped with soft, pinkish cream points like soft, baby bear claws. As the plant grows, fleshy stems closely hold pairs of leaves, making a small bushy plant, always so full. Pinch for shape, pinched stems root super fast. Little stems like lampposts rise up and hold clusters of peachy orange bells when he’s happy.
