Common Names:
Bear Paw Variegated
Plant Category:

Plant/Product Description:
Cotyledon tomentosa variegata, commonly known as the Bear Paw Variegated, is a unique and visually striking succulent known for its fleshy, rounded leaves that resemble bear paws. The leaves are a soft, silvery-green color with creamy, variegated edges that give the plant a distinctive appearance. Covered in fine, soft hairs, the leaves have a velvety texture that makes them particularly appealing to touch.

Perfect for container gardens, rock gardens, or as part of a succulent arrangement, this low-maintenance plant is a must-have for succulent enthusiasts.
Plant Care Notes:
- Sunlight: Prefers full sun but can tolerate bright, indirect light. Bright sunlight enhances the variegation and promotes healthy growth.
- Watering: Water thoroughly when the soil is dry to the touch. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings to prevent root rot.
- Soil: Requires a well-draining cactus or succulent mix with added perlite or pumice for optimal drainage.
- Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 70°F and 85°F (21°C to 29°C). It is not frost-tolerant and should be protected from freezing temperatures.
- Propagation: Easily propagated by leaf or stem cuttings. Allow the cut ends to callous before replanting in well-draining soil.
- Pests: Generally pest-resistant but may occasionally attract mealybugs or aphids. Regular inspections help maintain plant health.
Toxicity:
Cotyledon tomentosa variegata is non-toxic to humans and pets, making it a safe addition to homes and gardens.
