African bonsai, also known as Buttonweed, Tortoise Plant, Button Cactus
African bonsai is adapted to desert conditions, making it more forgiving and easy to care for as a houseplant. Key care points include ensuring well-draining soil and occasional deep watering to mimic natural arid habitats. Special care should be taken to provide plenty of light, as african bonsai thrives best with full sun exposure. Avoiding overwatering is crucial to prevent root rot.
