Snagged this P. Afra at the nursery, I’ve been really into them as of late and I’ve been looking for an older one that’s more developed as a possible “showpiece” tree. $75 for this is a deal imo, especially up here in Chicago where they don’t grow as easily.
Anyways, the bark on the trunk looks awfully rough—for a dwarf jade, no less. Could this be a “cork bark” variety, or if this normal trunk development for the age?
