Product Description

Stapelia affinis var. hirsuta RH532 is a fascinating and rare succulent species prized for its unique star-shaped flowers and hairy stems. Native to the arid regions of Southern Africa, this clump-forming succulent features fleshy, green stems with a distinct covering of fine hairs, giving it a hirsute (hairy) appearance. The plant’s standout feature is its large, star-shaped flowers, typically maroon or purple-brown, with soft, fuzzy surfaces. The flowers emit a carrion-like scent, attracting flies for pollination, a trait typical of the Stapelia genus. RH532 refers to the specific collection number for this variety, which is popular among collectors for its bold, exotic blooms and textured stems.
