Dioscorea Elephantipes
Common Name: Elephant’s Foot / Turtle Shell Plant

Dioscorea Elephantipes is a rare and iconic caudiciform succulent known for its spectacular, woody caudex that resembles the cracked shell of a tortoise or the rough foot of an elephant—hence its name. This slow-growing plant develops a sculptural dome over time, with geometric plates that give it a truly prehistoric look.

During its active growing season, it produces delicate vines with heart-shaped green leaves that climb and sprawl in all directions, making it both rugged and elegant in form. Native to South Africa, it thrives in dry climates and is perfect for collectors of unusual, bonsai-style succulents.


☀ Light Requirements
Enjoys bright, indirect sunlight or partial sun. Outdoors, morning sun and afternoon shade are ideal. Indoors, place near a bright window for best growth.


💧 Watering Needs
Water sparingly during the growing season (usually fall to spring), when leaves are present. Once the plant goes dormant and drops its vines, reduce watering significantly or stop completely until new growth appears. Always ensure excellent drainage.


🌡 Temperature Tolerance
Not frost-tolerant. Keep above 45°F. For cold climates or winter shipments, we recommend adding a [Heat Pack] to your order.


✨ Special Features
Tortoise-Shell Caudex – One of the most recognizable and collectible caudiciforms.
Heart-Shaped Leaves – Vining foliage adds contrast and beauty during active growth.
Bonsai-Like Form – Perfect for shallow pots and artistic displays.

Other Common Names:
Elephant’s Foot, Turtle Shell Plant, Hottentot Bread

Not very durable
Size: 5 Pack
They’re a great toy for the dog. However, if the dog is bigger, they are very easily destroyed.

Bought these multiple times!
Size: 5 Pack
These are among the few toys my dogs don’t rip apart in seconds! Eventually, Bailey (my oldest) does manage to rip out the squeaker, but it takes her way longer than any other toy I’ve ever bought. Both of my dachshunds absolutely love to squeak it. I have bought these a few times over the last few years and will definitely keep buying them!

Best Tennis Balls Ever
Color: Non-Squeaky - Pack of 12, Size: Medium
Admittedly, I haven't had these for very long, received on Jan 7 and today is Jan 19., 2021, only 12 days. But, we have a terrier mix who hasn't found a tennis ball she couldn't destroy given an hour or two. That is until now. Twelve Days later? She hasn't managed to destroy it at all. We have a puzzle cub that came with a ball inside it. It only took her a couple hours for the ball to rupture at the seam and another 10 minutes to completely destroy it beyond recognition. We put one of these balls in there and here we are over a week later. Not only has she not destroyed the ball but she hasn't been able to get this one out. She looks so silly trying to carry the ball inside the cube. It's hilarious. Anyway, I digress. I would totally recommend this toy for an yone who has a dog that lives to play fetch bit keeps destroying the balls. By the way, Update: Jan 31, 2021 and still going strong. No signs of damage.

Perfect tennis ball size.
Color: Non-Squeaky - Pack of 12, Size: Medium
Like most doggy balls they dont last as long as real tennis ball, but a real tennis ball can wear down her teeth. Great colors, tho in a few days they are yard colored cuz of the slobber and nature on it. Love the handy mesh bag for keeping put away until we need to get out a new one. My dog loves the no squeaky. To her squeaky is inside toy and too distracting for outdoor play. She really enjoys fetching this ball.
