Product Description



The seeds of Pachypodium rutenbergianum are small, oval, and light brown to tan in color, often featuring a fine, papery wing that aids in wind dispersal. Their smooth, slightly flattened surface makes them easy to handle, while their tough outer coating protects the delicate embryo inside. These lightweight yet durable seeds are well-adapted to arid conditions, ensuring they remain viable until the right moisture and temperature conditions trigger germination. A stunning species from Madagascar, this Pachypodium is prized for its sculptural growth and striking flowers.
