Elephant tree

[Ejlamiotte]

I recently bought an elephant tree that I plan to bonsai, but I can't find to much info on them anywhere online. Any advice?

Look up “portulacaria afra” (actual name) or “dwarf jade” (that and Elephant bush are common names)

There is tons of info here, and online about them.

Another tree sometimes called elephant bush is
Operculacaria decarii

Wikipedia has articles on both under their botanical names, take a look and see which is a match.

Or post a photo here. The differences are obvious.
