Cotyledon tomentosa Bear’s Paw is a perennial succulent plant in the family of Crassulaceae. The plant is much branched, with green stems, fertile fleshy leaves, decussate, ovoid, green, and densely white short hairs. The leaves have red claw-like teeth at the tips, dichotomous cymes, yellow florets, and flowers from July to September.

This species is native to the Cape Province of South Africa. It prefers a warm, dry, sunny and well-ventilated environment. Too high temperatures in summer will make it dormant. Avoid cold and excessive humidity. Propagation methods include cuttings.

Care Tips

Light: Likes light, and it can grow vigorously and in a more beautiful condition in a well-lit environment. Except for the strong light in summer, it can be placed in a place with good light and more sunshine in all three seasons. If it is in the shade for a long time, the Bear’s Paw will easily grow and the overall ornamental value will be greatly reduced.

Water: All succulents are drought tolerant and fear water logging, and bear’s paws are no exception. Watering it can be done according to the method of dry and wet, and the soil does not need to be watered if it is not dry. During the growing season, it is usually watered once a week, but in other stages, watering should be strictly controlled because the roots could be damaged by overwatering.

Soil: The soil must be loose, permeable and water-permeable, and the soil should be changed once every year or two to avoid soil caking. You can prepare your own nutritious soil when you maintain it, or you can buy special soil for succulent plants directly.

Potting: It is recommended to use ceramic pots, ceramic pots have a certain degree of permeability, clay pots lose water too fast, plastic pots retain water too strong, and poor permeability.

Temperature: Like a warm environment (high temperature requirements). High temperature in summer and low temperature in winter need to take timely temperature control measures. Summer needs to strengthen ventilation, timely blocking of strong light, the best temperature control at 86°F (30 ℃) or less, winter needs to move to a warm room, temperature control at about 50°F (10 ℃) only, the minimum should not be less than 41°F (5 ℃).

Humidity: Bear’s paw grows well in average household humidity levels when grown indoors. Does not like too much humidity. Normal household humidity is good for this plant.

    Care Instructions

    Please visit our Succulent Care info page for more details.

    To ensure the health of succulents, it is important to plant them in porous, well-draining soil. Succulents require little watering, but don't like to sit in wet soil. To create an adequate cactus mix, simply add pumice, perlite, or grit to cactus soil to provide the proper drainage.

    Make sure to leave drought periods between waterings to prevent the plant from water-logging.

      smells fresh without being overpowering

      The spray makes it SO easy to apply, especially when you’re in a rush. No white cast, no heavy feeling—just a quick mist and you’re good to go.

      One of the best-rated consumer sunscreens
      Sun protection factor: 30 Sun Protection Factor (SPF), Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
      I tend to analyze, no, overanalyze nearly every purchase I make. Sunscreen is no different. In fact, I'd say its one of those things you really shouldn't slack on... i mean Afterall, it's protecting the largest human organ! All of my in-depth reviews indicate that this was one of the top sunscreens to purchase due to its overall efficacy and purity of chemicals used in it. All of that said - I really enjoy using it. It smells absolutely fantastic and makes me feel like I'm on vacation even if I'm just a couple miles from home. The application is extremely air-light, non oily, and it doesn't even feel like I'm wearing it. It didn't stain my clothing or rub off on anything. The spray comes out pretty lightly, as in you won't empty half the bottle over a few moments of depressing the button. Fantastic sunscreen and I will absolutely keep purchasing this.
