fairy tale plant succulent Tylecodon schaeferianus – Fairy Tale PlantDescription Light Soil Water Hardiness The Tylecodon schaeferianus, affectionately known as the "Fairy Tale Plant," is a miniature succulent that looks like it belongs in a fantasy forest. It is a "caudiciform" or pachycaul plant, meaning it develops a thick, swollen, and gnarled base (caudex) with peeling, papery bark. From this ancient looking trunk, tiny, egg shaped green leaves emerge, giving it the appearance of a microscopic, weathered tree.

The Tylecodon schaeferianus, affectionately known as the "Fairy Tale Plant," is a miniature succulent that looks like it belongs in a fantasy forest. It is a "caudiciform" or pachycaul plant, meaning it develops a thick, swollen, and gnarled base (caudex) with peeling, papery bark. From this ancient-looking trunk, tiny, egg-shaped green leaves emerge, giving it the appearance of a microscopic, weathered tree.
This rare gem hails from the arid, rocky regions of Namibia and the Namaqualand in South Africa. It is a desert specialist, having evolved to store water in its woody trunk to survive the harsh, dry winters of its native habitat.
The flowering stage of the Fairy Tale Plant adds to its mystique. It produces small, tubular, trumpet-shaped flowers that are usually a pale pink or creamy white with delicate maroon or purple stripes. These blooms appear on thin stalks and provide a soft, elegant contrast to the rugged, "crusty" appearance of the trunk.
-
Bright Indirect Light. It loves light but can be sensitive to intense, direct afternoon sun which may scorch its tiny leaves.
Extremely Gritty/Inorganic. Use a mix of pumice, lava rock, and coarse sand. It requires maximum drainage to protect the caudex.
Careful & Seasonal. This is a winter grower. Water more regularly in autumn/winter when leaves are present, and keep nearly bone-dry in summer dormancy. -
10 to 11. Almost exclusively grown as an indoor specialty plant in temperate regions.

Great toy to occupy pet
Color: Red, Color: Red
This ball is super fast, and lasts very long on one charge. It really keeps my cat entertained, he’s just so curious about it. It’s easy to pick out dust any hair it might catch on, it’s rubber material is durable. It’s a stable toy since my cat likes to play roughly.

Great for Puppies!
Color: Red
This toy has been a great purchase for my new puppy! He has so much fun playing with it and stays engaged for long periods. While it can move a little fast at first, the adjustable speed settings make it easy to customize. Overall, it’s a fantastic toy that keeps him active, entertained, and happy.

Good for (non-destructive) small dogs
Color: Red
Bought for a small dog, would not recommend for a destructive chewer. After some initial hesitation this has become her favorite toy and keeps her entertained for a good while. The different settings provide some variety to how she can play with it. The battery only lasts about an hour, but it does charge quickly. As others have noted the string is garbage.

Cool gadget for you puppy!
Color: Red
Do you need a break sometime? Something that you puppy can play with for 20 or 30 minutes at a time? This is it! It goes around the place in random paths that will keep your puppy entertained and amusedZ. It not to loud and it lasts a long time and nothing has broken off form the rough play at all.

Great for small dogs with a big prey drive!
Color: Red
He loves it!! I have a small dog with a big prey drive and he goes absolutely crazy for this! A big plus for taking the boredom away, really perking up his mental attitude. It's also (at this moment) much cheaper than others that look very similar. Super easy to charge. My dog is a rescue and never learned to play with toys, has zero interest in stuffed toys and doesn't really understand play, but this isn't play to him: It's what he was born to do. He gives it a hearty Two Paws Up!
