Product Description

The Raphionacme angolensis is a unique caudiciform plant known for its large, underground tuberous caudex that stores water, allowing it to survive in arid conditions. The caudex is thick, rounded, and textured, often partially exposed above the soil surface. It produces slender, climbing stems with glossy, dark green leaves that are oval and slightly pointed. In summer, it blooms with clusters of small, star-shaped greenish-yellow flowers that emit a delicate fragrance. Its unusual form and drought resistance make it highly prized among succulent collectors.
