Is the portulacaria afra plant possible to become wabi-kusa?🥲I need to do my wabi-kusa assignment and I bought portulacaria afra plant as my choice. Is it possible to make it become wabi-kusa? or i did a mistake? I need some professor to answer it.
No, it is a succulent and won't enjoy wet. You could grow it a "Bonsai".Is it possible to make it become wabi-kusa? or i did a mistake?
Wabi Kusa is commonly referred to growing aquatic plants emerged in the west. In Japanese, Wabi’ denotes something aesthetic, imperfectly beautiful and natural. ‘Kusa’ means ‘grass’ or sometimes ‘plant’. Therefore ‘Wabi-kusa’ does not literally mean that they must be aquatic plants, but denotes something natural, beautiful, sweetly imperfect and involving plants.Hi all,

We have a few wabi-kusa threads <"DIY Wabi Kusa Spaghnum">. A Marsilea sp. has done well with benign neglect (it is @megwattscreative 's really) for me.
