The Rainbow Bush lives up to its name with the variety of colour across its foliage! Its red stems are set off against the green leaves with their splashes of pale, creamy variegation. This tiny-leaved succulent is part of the staple diet for African elephants where it grows in the wild, hence the name 'Elephant Bush'. As it grows older, these shoots will become woody and thicker; sometimes this plant is even grown as a bonsai due to its naturally small leaves! However you choose to cultivate it, be sure not to overwater and this plant will reward your care with its vibrant, eyecatching foliage- and in summer, if it's really feeling at home in your home, you may see clusters of tiny, scented pink flowers adding to your rainbow!

Scientific Name
Portulacaria afra (African plant that's like a Portulaca (plant family name)) ‘Medio-picta’

Common Name
Rainbow Bush, Elephant Bush, Midstripe Rainbow Bush, Dwarf Jade Plant, Elephant's Food

Origin
Native to South Africa

Light
Likes bright light and will do well with a couple of hours of morning or evening sun per day. An east- or west-facing window which doesn't get too much midday/afternoon sun would be ideal

Water
Allow all the soil to dry out between waters; in its native South Africa, the Rainbow Bush gets watered by monsoons every so often so is used to getting all its water in one big downpour, then going for long periods without! Use lukewarm water and try and use rainwater, or leave your tapwater to stand for 24 hours

Humidity
Low humidity is what this planyt is used to. An occasional hosing down of the leaves will help keep it hydrated as long as the foliage dries out thoroughly afterwards!

Soil
Use a well-draining soil with added sand and grit; a blend designed for cacti and succulents will work well here. Repot every 1-2 years in spring.

Food
Feed every two months in the growing season, reduce to every three in autumn and winter. A fertiliser designed for cacti will be most suited for this plant, though generic houseplant feed will also do.

Temperature
Average household temperatures of about 15-26°C are fine- make sure it doesn't drop below 10°C in winter.

Pet-safe
The elephant bush is non-toxic but can cause a bad reaction if eaten by some pets, especially in larger amounts! They are a good food source for African elephants and tortoises, though.

Sprouts Top Tips
If you want to keep your Rainbow Bush small, it is important to prune it; there are many different styles you can choose to do this in, but if you want to follow a particular asthetic it may be worth looking up bonsai cultivation tips! Without pruning, the plant can grow up to 2m in height, though this will take 5-10 years and lots of diligent repotting.

Cabin air filter for Honda
Cabin air filter was an exact fit and arrived the next day. Seems to be of comparable quality to OEM part and was significantly cheaper.

Quick and easy to install
This review is for the INFISTAR AC85111 Cabin Air Filter. To be honest, when I saw this product I was a bit perplexed as to whether our car (Honda Odyssey) even had one! I have never replaced a cabin air filter on any car before. The mechanics might have done so during regular service, but I was not aware of it and had to do an internet search to find out where it would even be installed. Just because of my ignorance, I decided to get it and educate myself. My car actually DID have one and installation would have been a quick and easy job if I remembered to take all the heavy stuff (manuals, etc.) out of the glove box. Because I did not do it, it unhooked it on the right and I had quite a bit of trouble realigning it. If it hadn't been for that, installation would have only take a couple of minutes as it was a breeze. The new filter looks like a good quality product and will last a while. Jury is still out for me on the color though. The old filter was white, so it was easy to see the dirt it trapped. This new filter is almost dirt color which would make it harder to see how dirty it is. However, at such an affordable price, I can replace it as often as I want. I asked my mechanic about it and he said he only replaces cabin air filters if the customer requests it or if he notices a funny odor in the car.

Effective Cabin Air Filter – Fresh and Clean Air for My Car
I recently replaced my car’s cabin air filter with the AC85111 activated carbon filter, and I’ve noticed a clear improvement in air quality inside the vehicle. It helps keep the cabin air fresh, especially during daily commutes and long drives. The activated carbon layer does a good job of reducing dust, odors, and outside pollution, making the driving experience more comfortable. I also noticed less smell from traffic fumes and general road dust entering the car. The fit was perfect for my Honda Pilot, and installation was simple without needing any special tools. It is compatible with several Honda and Acura models, which makes it a reliable replacement option. The material feels well-made and sturdy enough for regular use, ensuring consistent airflow while filtering out impurities effectively. Considering its performance and durability, it also offers good value for money. Overall, this is a practical, easy-to-install, and reliable cabin air filter that helps maintain cleaner and fresher air inside the car.

Good fit for our Honda Accord, quality filter
This was the perfect fit for my daughter's Honda Accord. It's a solid, budget‑friendly upgrade that fits perfectly. It only took a few minutes to install. The pleated material feels sturdy, and the activated carbon layer helps cut down on odors and everyday cabin dust.
