hi all!! :)

i was wondering if you could help identify one of my plants for me. i got this one at Lowe’s about a year or so ago, and i’ve long forgotten its name!

my best guess is “Portulacaria afra prostrata,” but the stems on mine look a little stiffer and brown than any Elephant Bush pictures i see…and the leaves are one color.

if you have any idea, please let me know! thanks :)

Pretty positive this is an elephant bush, the regular, non-variegated version
