Native to South Africa, it is named "Cliff Cotyledon" because of its shape and its natural habitat preference for rocky cliffs and slopes. In the wild, you can often find this trailing plant growing on the edges of cliffs or hanging from rocky ledges, where it receives full sun and summer

Introducing the cliff cotyledon, known as Cotyledon Pendens, a vibrant member of the Cotyledon genus and Crassulaceae family; and is good for hanging baskets. Native to South Africa, it is named "Cliff Cotyledon" because of its shape and its natural habitat preference for rocky cliffs and slopes. In the wild, you can often find this trailing plant growing on the edges of cliffs or hanging from rocky ledges, where it receives full sun and summer rainfall. 

Cotyledon pendens is a branched, succulent shrublet with teardrop-shaped leaves on dense, trailing stems that branch from nodes and can grow up to 2 feet long. As they mature, the stems become woody with brownish bark. When grown in direct sunlight, the powdery, glaucous coating on the light green leaves turns bright red around the edges. They are attached to the stem with a short petiole and initially sparsely covered with glandular hairs, but become hairless as they mature, giving them a smooth surface. 

When it comes to flowering, this species Cotyledon Pendens produces small, tubular bell-shaped flowers that hang down from the stems during summer. The flowers are typically orange red in color and can add a beautiful splash of color to the plant. However, it's worth noting that flowering in this species is relatively rare when grown indoors. 

Propagation of Cotyledon Pendens can be done through stem cuttings. All you have to do is take a healthy stem cutting, let it callus and dry for a few days, and then plant it in well-drained soil. With proper care, the cutting will develop roots and grow into a new Cotyledon plant. 

Watering Needs 

When it comes to watering your Cotyledon pendens, they are adapted to survive in arid environments, so they don't need frequent water supply as other houseplants. When you do water your Cotyledon plant, make sure to give it a thorough soak. 

In the spring and early summer, during the growing season, water is deep enough to allow excess water to drain through the drainage holes, and then allow the soil to completely dry before watering again. Avoid leaving the plant sitting in standing water, as this wet soil can also lead to root rot. It's better to err on the side of underwatering because overwatering can cause root rot and other problems. A good rule of thumb is to water your Cotyledon pendens when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. 

In the late summer, during the dormant phase, you'll want to reduce the frequency of watering. It requires less water during this time, so adjust your watering schedule accordingly. 

Light Requirements 

When it comes to growing Cotyledon pendens cliff cotyledon indoors, it thrives in bright, indirect light. Place it near a sunny window or under a grow light, where it can receive plenty of bright light throughout the day. However, be cautious of placing it in direct sunlight, as the intense rays can scorch the leaves. If you notice that your Cotyledon pendens plant is stretching or leaning towards the light, it may be an indication that it needs more light. 

If growing Cotyledon pendens outdoors, it prefers partial shade to full sun. It can tolerate a few hours of direct sunlight in the morning or late afternoon, but it's best to provide some shade during the hottest part of the day. If you live in a region with intense summer heat, providing some afternoon shade can help protect your Cotyledon succulent from sunburn. 

Remember, the light requirements of Cotyledon pendens may vary depending on your specific climate and the conditions in your home or garden. It's always a good idea to observe your Cotyledon plant and make adjustments accordingly. 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer 

Cotyledon pendens favors very airy, sandy soil that drains well. Planting them in ordinary porous soil without good drainage will result in compacted roots, stunted growth, and most likely root rot. Instead, make or buy a well-draining succulent soil, 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 Cotyledon succulent to thrive. 

Like other succulents, Cotyledon Pendens doesn't require frequent feeding or any ordinary fertilizer. During the active growing season, which is typically spring, you can fertilize the plant once a year. Use a balanced (5-10-5), water-soluble NPK fertilizer specifically formulated for succulents. Follow the instructions for the proper dilution ratio. 

Remember, it's important not to over-fertilize succulents, as this can lead to excessive growth and weak stems. Always err on the side of caution and use a diluted fertilizer solution. During the winter months, when Cotyledon pendens is in its dormant phase, you can reduce or even stop fertilizing altogether. By providing well-draining soil and occasional fertilization, you can help ensure that your Cotyledon Pendens remains healthy and happy. 

Hardiness Zone & More 

When growing Cotyledon pendens indoors, it is important to maintain a temperature range of around 60-75°F. It prefers average room temperatures and can tolerate slightly cooler temperatures at night. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperature fluctuations or drafts, as this can stress the Cotyledon pendens plant. 

Cotyledon Pendens is quite adaptable and can tolerate lower temperatures and average indoor humidity levels. However, it does appreciate some humidity, especially during drier winter months or in arid climates. You can increase humidity around the plant by placing a tray of water nearby or using a humidifier. 

If you are living in USDA zones 9-11, you can grow your Cotyledon pendens outdoors year-round. It thrives in temperatures ranging from 65-85°F. If you live in a colder climate, it's best to keep Cotyledon Pendens indoors or provide it with protection during frost, if the temperature drops below 20 F. Cotyledon Pendens can tolerate a wide range of humidity levels. It can adapt to both dry and humid environments, making it a versatile choice for outdoor gardens in various climates. 

The Bottom Line 

Overall, the Cotyledon pendens is a unique and eye-catching succulent plant. With its trailing stems and fleshy, teardrop-shaped leaves, it adds a touch of whimsy to any space or in a hanging basket. This Cotyledon plant is relatively low maintenance, making it a great choice for both beginner and experienced plant enthusiasts. It thrives in full sunlight to partial shade and prefers well-draining soil. When it comes to watering, it's best to allow the top inch of soil to dry out before watering again to prevent root rot. Additionally, you can grow it outdoors year-round in USDA zones 9-11. Overall, with the right care and attention, Cotyledon Pendens can be a beautiful and rewarding addition to your indoor or outdoor plant collection.

My dog loves it
Color: 1 PC-Beef-Red, Color: 1 PC-Beef-Red
The bone arrived today and my dog loves it. He is a very aggressive chewer and destroyed almost all his toys so far, even toys that were advertised for aggressive chewers unfortunately didn't held out long, the longest so far was a stuffy we couldn't find anymore and that one lasted him a few weeks but everything else lasted him an hour up to a few days max, even bones don't last him long so we have our hopes set on this bone to satisfy his chewing needs. I will update my review later on sturdiness, since we just got it and I can't review that yet but so far he loves it he has been chewing on it non stop, he already managed to get very small pieces of as shown in picture but with a regular bone he would've already been much much further. The bone is only 10 bucks so the value for money you get based on my experience so far is amazing! But also for this I will come back later to touch upon more. The size is good, our boy is a medium sized dog and this bone was advertised for medium to large size dogs and I thinks the size is just right for our boy . And there is definitely a beef flavor on it you can smell it but it doesn't smell bad it's a nice smell and not very strong but when he is chewing on it you smell it. I would based on my experience so far definitely recommend this bone but also on this I will touch back upon later if it's worth it in the long run. So far a very happy dog and owners here. Edit on May 8th (original review was on March 11th) He still hasn't managed to destroy it it's the first (cgew)toy he hasn't managed to destroy yet which is very impressive since he managed to destroy the even most toughest things we got for him in a week tops and bones within 1, 2 days tops, so we are very happy and pleased with this bone and will definitely get more later. He still enjoys chewing on it and leaves our things mostly alone for some reason he just likes stealing my things and chew on it lol. So 2 months later still stand by recommending this when your dog loves to chew and destroys everything he puts his mouth on.

Extremely durable, dogs love them
Color: 2 PC-Beef-Red, Color: 2 PC-Beef-Red
I was looking for the toughest and most durable dog chew bone I could find and this is it. I have bought multiple other brands that claim to be very durable and tough for a very long time and this is the one for sure. The shower has described this phone accurately and it truly does last. I purchased this bone about 2 months ago. As you see from the photos attached, this is a very well made chew bone and my aggressive pitbulls can't tear it apart do they try. They never get tired of it and chewing it every single day for hours on and keeping them very occupied. I have two bones and three pitbulls that chew on it every day. It is so adorable and has an awesome flavor to it which I think entices them even more to want to chew on it. The durability and Lasting power is amazing to me with these tough chewers. I highly recommend this product to everyone out there. I will say only one negative and that is that the middle wraparound piece they were able to pull off but that is not a big deal because there is plenty of bone which was under that cover in the middle of the bone. There's a few mauled chips missing from the ends but the life of this bone is obviously going to be a long time which really surprised me. Give it a shot if you have heavy duty chewers and you will find how awesome this phone really is and it's durability and strength our second to none in my opinion.

My dog loves it.
Color: 1 PC-Beef-Red
My dog is a super aggressive chewer when it comes to toys. Anything that is soft he rips apart. This one has a wonderful squeaky sound that makes him happy and he enjoys the smell of it. This is a very strong material and definitely worth the price.

Durable!
Color: 1 PC-Beef-Red
Alright, here's a product review for those Tough Dog Toys: Finally, a Toy That Survives My Monster! - Tough Dog Toys Review As the owner of a determined (and I mean determined) large breed chewer, finding toys that last longer than five minutes has been a constant and often frustrating quest. I've gone through countless plush toys ripped to shreds, rubber toys with chunks missing, and even some "indestructible" toys that met their demise far too quickly. That's why I was both hopeful and skeptical when I came across the Tough Dog Toys, designed specifically for aggressive chewers and large breeds. Let me tell you, these bone-shaped nylon toys are living up to their name. My power-chewing Labrador has been going at this thing for days now, and I'm genuinely impressed. Where other toys have succumbed to his relentless gnawing, the Tough Dog Toy has held its own. There are some minor teeth marks, as expected, but absolutely no significant damage, no pieces torn off, and no signs of imminent destruction. "Almost indestructible" might actually be an understatement! The design is simple but effective. The solid nylon construction feels incredibly durable, and the bone shape is easy for my dog to grip and maneuver. It's also a good size for a large breed – substantial enough that he can really get a good chew going without it disappearing in his mouth. What I appreciate most is the peace of mind this toy provides. I no longer have to constantly supervise playtime, fearing that he'll ingest pieces of a destroyed toy. This feels like a safe and long-lasting option for even the most enthusiastic chewers. Pros: * Truly durable – stands up to aggressive chewing from a large breed. * Solid nylon construction feels virtually indestructible. * Safe design with no small parts to break off. * Good size and shape for large dogs to grip and enjoy. * Provides long-lasting entertainment. Cons: * May show some teeth marks over time (though this hasn't compromised its integrity). * It's a fairly hard material, so dogs who prefer softer toys might not be as interested. Overall: If you're at your wit's end trying to find a toy that can withstand your aggressive chewing large breed dog, I highly recommend giving the Tough Dog Toys a try. This bone toy has proven to be the most durable option we've encountered, offering excellent value for money and, most importantly, a safe and engaging chewing experience for your furry friend. Five out of five paws!

Very well made chew bone!
Color: 1 PC-Beef-Red
Great durable, very well made chew bone! Our dog usually tears up all his toys within a few minutes or sometimes hours after he gets them. He’s had this bone for a few days and it’s still in one piece. Except for the rubber that’s in the middle, he chewed up in a couple of days. I would definitely buy more chew toys made by this company! Well worth the money!
