Description

succulent grey Ceraria namaquensisCeraria namaquensis, now botanically reclassified as Portulacaria namaquensis, is a rare and slow growing shrub known for its thick, contorted gray brown branches that give the plant a bonsai like aesthetic even when left unpruned. Its small, round, succulent leaves are a muted blue green or olive tone and grow opposite along the branches. These leaves are drought deciduous, meaning they may fall during prolonged dry spells, especially if grown

Ceraria namaquensis, now botanically reclassified as Portulacaria namaquensis, is a rare and slow-growing shrub known for its thick, contorted gray-brown branches that give the plant a bonsai-like aesthetic even when left unpruned. Its small, round, succulent leaves are a muted blue-green or olive tone and grow opposite along the branches.

These leaves are drought-deciduous, meaning they may fall during prolonged dry spells, especially if grown outdoors in hotter climates. These leaves drop off altogether during summer when evaporation is at its greatest and the Ceraria plant enters a dormant stage.

Native to the dry, rocky landscapes of southern Namibia and northwestern South Africa, the Ceraria namaquensis can grow up to 2 feet tall, though in their habitat, they can be slightly taller.

Their slow growth rate and compact size make them ideal for pots, shallow rock gardens, and small-space displays.

During late spring or summer, tiny pale pink or whitish flowers may appear along the branches.

The blooms are not particularly showy but are a charming addition when they occur.

These flowers are dioecious; male and female flowers occur on separate plants, so seed production typically requires both sexes. That said, most propagation is done by cuttings, as the plant roots fairly easily in the right conditions.

When it comes to caring for Ceraria namaquensis, it requires full sun to bright indirect light to maintain compact growth and encourage strong branching.

Indoors, place it near a south- or west-facing window with maximum sunlight. Indoors, keep temperatures between 60–85°F for optimal growth.

Outdoors, it thrives in USDA hardiness zones 10–11 and must be protected from frost.

Temperatures below 30°F can damage or kill the plant. In colder zones, it’s best kept as a container plant and moved indoors during winter. 

Watering should be infrequent but deep. Let the soil dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering is the most common cause of decline, especially in cooler seasons. Use a fast-draining succulent mix, opens in a new tab, and consider adding extra pumice or coarse sand for added drainage. Pruning is rarely needed but can be done to shape the plant or remove weak stems. It responds well to trimming, which can encourage branching and a more compact form.

According to ASPCA, the Ceraria namaquensis is non-toxic to pets and humans, which adds to its appeal as a houseplant. Its drought tolerance, slow growth, and bonsai-friendly character make it a low-maintenance choice for collectors.  

Final Thoughts

Overall, the Ceraria namaquensis is a prized succulent for those who enjoy sculptural plants with a desert aesthetic. Its natural bonsai appearance, drought resilience, and suitability for small containers make it ideal for indoor growers, collectors, and succulent enthusiasts in dry climates. While it grows slowly, its twisted form and charming foliage offer year-round interest with minimal effort. Order your very own Ceraria namaquensis for sale today!

Burns
Maybe once you get your eczema under control with some other product, you can use this for maintenance, but it's an absolute misery if you have a bad outbreak of eczema. I have no idea why this thing has alcohol in it but it burns like a star when you put it on severely irritated skin. Note: I originally gave this 3 stars, but Eczema Honey reached out to me to offer a refund. I didn't take it, but I appreciated that they *would* do that. Plus, my acute outbreak has subsided and it's perfectly fine to use now, so just be warned it hurts to apply if you have an active eczema flareup!

Absolutely worth the money!!
I'm 38 and I've never had eczema but I did always have sensitive skin. About a week ago I noticed a dry patch under my eyelid and boy did it flare up very quickly. I tried several plant based products for eczema but it just burned. I decided this product would be my final purchase before going to urgent care. I received this product 2 days ago. After reading the reviews I decided to slowly add this to my skin. Now it did burn on the part that was super worse than the other so I made sure to put very thin amounts till my skin could handle a thick application. Id say I put the cream on about 6times the first day by the next day I could already see the difference the swelling and redness went away. The second day I did the same no more slight burning my skin is still dry but it is healing. I would definitely give it a try if you're experiencing eczema for your first time!

Itch-Free Face :)
This cream made a difference day one! It soothed the skin around my eyes and eyelids plus on my face. I forgot to wash my face one night and my skin was still outbreak free and felt so smooth. I haven't had itchy skin since I started using this cream. I would definitely recommend to a friend.

Ouch! I paid WHAT for this?
This "eczema cream" contains alcohol. It says you can use it on your face and body. I applied the cream to my face and it burned my eyes. I then read that the ingredients contain alcohol. It did NOT help with my eczema at all. Everyone's skin is different, but I personally was very disappointed especially at $20 for 2oz. that the product ingredients were not soothing, burned my eyes, and dried out my skin more than it already was.
