Introducing the variegated bear paw or bear claw succulent, known as the Cotyledon ladismithiensis variegata, a vibrant member of the Cotyledon ladismithiensis family. The Bear paw succulent plant's leaves resemble bear paw pads, with a claw-like shape and fuzzy texture. Variegation, a pattern of different colors on the fragile leaves, further enhances the paw-like appearance. 

This rare evergreen variegated bears paw succulents, with its thick, fleshy leaves that are covered in soft, velvety hairs, gives it a cozy and cuddly appearance. The leaves are typically green with splashes of cream or yellow variegation and a red tooth-like formation on the edge, adding to its charm. Native to South Africa, this slow-growing dense mat-forming plant, can grow up to 12 inches tall. 

The flowers of the variegated bear paw succulent are tubular and bell-shaped on long stalks, during the spring. The flowers can vary in color, ranging from shades of yellow to orange or even red. 

You can propagate the Bear Paw succulent through stem cuttings or leaf cuttings. Simply take a healthy stem or leaf, allow it to callus for a few days, and then place it in well-draining soil. With proper care and the right conditions, these cuttings can grow healthy new plants. 

Additionally, the Variegated Bear Paw is mildly toxic to humans and pets if ingested. 

Watering Needs 

Like other succulents, the Variegated Bear Paw is adapted to survive in arid conditions. When watering, make sure to give your Cotyledon succulents a thorough soak. Water until it starts to drain out from the bottom of the pot. This ensures that the roots are properly hydrated. Avoid overwatering by providing a moderate amount of water. The goal is to moisten the soil without leaving it soggy. Overwatering can cause root rot and other issues. To prevent this, let the soil dry completely between waterings, and if it feels dry, water accordingly. 

In the spring and summer, during the growing season, the Bear's Paw succulent may require more frequent watering due to increased growth. While, in the fall and winter, during the dormant period, the plant's water needs decrease. Adjust your watering schedule accordingly. 

Remember, it's always a good idea to observe your soft succulents and adjust your watering routine based on its specific needs. Factors like pot size, humidity, and temperature can influence watering frequency. With a little practice and attention, you'll find the right balance to keep your Variegated Bear Paw thriving. 

Light Requirements 

When growing indoors, this Bear Paw plant thrives in bright, indirect light. Place it near a window that receives bright, filtered sunlight for a good portion of the day. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, especially during the hottest hours, as this can scorch the leaves. If you notice the leaves stretching or becoming leggy, it might be an indication that it needs more light. You can consider using a grow light to supplement the natural light if needed. 

When grown outdoors, the Bear Paw succulent prefers bright, indirect light or partial shade for at least 4-6 hours a day. It can tolerate some direct morning or late afternoon sun, but it's best to protect it from intense midday sunlight, especially in hotter climates. If you live in a region with harsh, scorching summers, providing some shade during the hottest part of the day can help prevent leaf burn and stress. 

Remember, it's essential to acclimate your Bear Paw succulents gradually to outdoor conditions if you plan to transition from indoors. Start by placing it in a shaded spot and gradually exposing it to more sunlight over a few weeks to avoid sunburn. 

If the plant receives too little light, it may become leggy and lose its vibrant colors. On the other hand, excessive direct sunlight can cause leaf burn. Observing your plant's response and adjusting its placement accordingly will help ensure it thrives in bright light in its new home, whether indoors or outdoors. 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

The Bear Paw succulent prefers well-draining soil to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. Planting them in ordinary soil will result in compacted roots, stunted growth, and most likely root rot. Instead, make or buy a well-draining potting mix, or ideally use our specialized succulent potting mix that contains 5 natural substrates and mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your succulent to thrive. 

To keep your Bear Paw healthy and happy, it's a good idea to fertilize it regularly during the growing season in the spring. You can use a balanced (5-10-5), water-soluble NPK fertilizer diluted to half-strength. Apply the fertilizer once a year to provide the plant with essential nutrients. 

However, it's important not to over-fertilize your variegated bear paw, as this can lead to fertilizer burn and damage to the plant. Always err on the side of caution and dilute the fertilizer more than recommended if you're unsure. During the dormant season in fall and winter, you can reduce or stop fertilizing altogether, as the plant's growth slows down. 

Remember, it's always a good idea to monitor your plant's response to fertilization. If you notice any signs of nutrient deficiencies or excesses, such as yellowing or browning leaves, adjust your fertilization routine accordingly. 

Hardiness Zone & More 

When growing indoors, the bear Paw succulent is well-suited where it can thrive in normal room temperatures. Ideally, it prefers temperatures between 65°F to 80°F. It's important to keep the plant away from drafts or extreme temperature fluctuations, as they can stress the plant. So, find a cozy spot in your home where the temperature remains relatively stable. 

When it comes to outdoor cultivation, the Variegated Bear Paw is generally hardy in USDA zones 9 to 11. If you live in one of these zones, you can consider growing them outdoors year-round. Just make sure to provide it with the right conditions and protection from frost, as it is not tolerant of freezing temperatures. 

Additionally, it appreciates a moderate level of humidity, around 50% to 60%. If you live in a region with higher humidity, the plant will generally do well. However, if you're in a drier climate, you can increase humidity by misting the plant's leaves or placing a tray of water nearby. 

Final Thoughts 

Overall, the Variegated Bear Paw (Cotyledon ladismithiensis variegata) is a fascinating cotyledon succulent that captures attention with its bear paw-like leaves and beautiful variegation. It's a real standout in any succulent collection, adding a touch of whimsy and charm. With its fuzzy texture, unique leaf shape, and occasional bell-shaped flowers, this plant is truly a delight to behold. This bear paw succulent requires bright, indirect sunlight and well-draining soil to thrive. To avoid root rot, water sparingly and let the soil dry out entirely in between watering. Additionally, these plants benefit from occasional misting to increase humidity levels. Give it a try and enjoy the beauty and intrigue this unique variegated bear paw brings to your home or garden.

Lightweight sweater
Size: XX-Large, Color: Navy
This sweater is very soft and lightweight making it perfect for spring and fall. The colors are beautiful and match the posted images. I have bought several different colors because I like them so much. I have larger arms and the sleeves have plenty of room. They do not wrinkle easily and are holding up well with routine wear and washing. My husband accidentally washed my navy one in hot water and put it in the dryer which made it fade and shrink considerably so be careful to read the label on how to wash and dry the garment and it will be just fine:

Very nice, yet hangs
Size: XX-Large, Color: Ivory
Soft, pretty and cozy. The bright clean color of white is crisp and pure. Unfortunately, the shoulders are too big and it hangs or is too wide and in turn, the sleeves are too long. The rest of it is proportionally correct for my body, so a different size would not work.

Lightweight & good price for quality
Size: Medium, Color: Camel Heather
Lightweight as other reviewers noted. I purchased camel color & oatmeal heather color for travelling on long plane ride while wearing with leggings. Ribbed cuffs and hem, which I like. V neck just right on me. Cotton blend knit, good. Color as expected. Sleeves long enough (yay!) Probably will pill eventually, but I'm not worried about it at the moment. Doesn't look cheap, which is nice for inexpensive top. I don't wear leggings a lot, so I don't think these will get lots of use, so until they start looking pilly I'll use them when I need to. I'm 5'7" & weigh 115 lbs, 34 A, and 37 hip. Size small in both colors draped perfectly, looser fit style, not clingy or tight around the bum, which is what I wanted. It doesn't look baggy or boxy on me, but I'm relatively slim so it may not fit as I've described for those with bigger bustline and/or waistline measurements and/or tummy. I think it is flattering on me, so I'm keeping them. I would say the size S it runs slightly big for my body type if that helps. Everyone is different even when we wear the same size! After reading reviews I purchased S and M sizes. I returned the mediums as they'd be way to baggy on me and too big across the shoulders.

Fantastic Sweater for the Price!
Size: XX-Large, Color: Charcoal Heather, Size: XX-Large, Color: Charcoal Heather
I'll admit it, I was VERY skeptical about buying an Amazon Basics Sweater. I was sure the sizing or material or something would have to be off as the sweater was very reasonably priced. I was very happily proven wrong. This sweater is great. It's a v-neck, the most flattering fit for me and the v is not so deep as to be indecent, I can wear it easily and comfortably to work without a camisole underneath - even as a rather busty gal. The material is nice and soft. It's not cashmere soft, but it feels much better than a $20 sweater. It also washes pretty well, I've washed my sweater a few times and have had no shrinkage. I don't tend to put sweaters in the dryer, I air dry them - so that probably helps as well. After 2 or 3 washes, there is a slight amount of pilling underneath the arms where the sweater rubs against itself, but not a large or greatly noticeable amount. The sweater is also pretty long. I'm not sure I'd wear it as a tunic (with leggings), but I do wear it with skinny jeans comfortably and don't worry about it riding up in the back. I found it to be true to size. It's meant to fit a little looser and I like that. It's a great comfy sweater and I get a lot of compliments on it. This is a great value for the price - I will definitely try other Amazon Essentials. I own it in three colors (and counting). Update a year later - I just purchased 3 more of these sweaters for the upcoming winter. They are some of my absolute favorites. They are flattering even if you have a bit of tummy and not too heavy. These have withheld multiple washing with minimal beading (or whatever you call it when the little fuzzy balls appear at the high friction points). I have done some shaving on the sweater and I'm pretty fastidious about washing them on gentle and letting them air dry (like I do with most of my sweaters).

Color not as pictured.
Size: Medium, Color: Dark Green
The color was not the same as picture. I was hoping for a nice jewel tone true green, but it is more of a light green. I still love the fit of it, and the color isnt ideal for me, but it isn't horrible. If I decide I really hate the color, it'll look great on my mom.
