Bursera fagaroides (Fragrant Bursera)

Fragrant Bursera is an interesting deciduous succulent know for its ability to be bonsai’d as well as having a very citrus like fragrance when foliage is crushed. This plant is also known to form a very chunky trunk which some collectors find very attractive. 

Bursera wants full sun and a well draining soil, make sure to not allow this plant to dry out completely or have this plant sitting in any standing water. A low nutrient content fertilizer is best for this species as over fertilization may cause legginess or fertilizer burn. 

While Bursera are very cold hardy they will have a dormancy period in the winter, cut back on your watering and keep in a temperature stable environment.
