Cotyledon tomentosa 'Bear's Paw' variegata is a densely branched "shurblet" succulent, meaning that it features a branching, yet petite, growth pattern. Its green and cream variegated leaves are wedge-shaped, chubby, and coated in a layer of soft hairs which are nearly impossible to resist touching! Small, rounded teeth line the edges of each leaf, earning the plant the name of ‘Bear’s Paw,’ and often blush to a pinkish hue when exposed to high levels of light or cooler temperatures. Reaching up to 12 inches tall and wide, this variety makes a great ‘filler’ component in succulent arrangements.

While bright sun will encourage the most rapid growth, ‘Bear’s Paw’ can tolerate partially shaded conditions, making it an ideal indoor succulent. Good drainage is a must for this plant, so be sure to select a porous soil mix and water in accordance with the ‘soak and dry’ method. Ample airflow will prevent water from settling within the branches of the plant, where it can cause rot.

Bell-shaped flowers will emerge during the summer growing months, and are typically a pale coral in color. During the winter season, take care to protect the chubby leaves from freezing temperatures, which could cause permanent scarring.

    All plants are shipped bare-root with the exception of House Plants and Plant Club Subscription Boxes. House plants and succulents will ship from separate locations and may arrive at different times. Orders ship Monday-Friday each week. Please allow 1-3 business days for your order to be processed. We ship within the USA and its outlying territories ONLY. Read our full policy here.

    Plant sizing is based on the diameter of the nursery pot (2", 2.5", 3", 4" etc), not the plant itself. Plants may be slightly larger or smaller than the pot they are grow in depending on availability or time of year. While we do our best to ship plants as similar to those pictured as possible, please keep in mind that all plants are unique from one to the next, and display color, shape, and growth variation based on current environment, time of year, and other contributing factors. Please note that we ship our plants as dry as possible in the fall and winter months to prevent root rot or freezing. They will plump back up after planting!
