Product Description

Stapelia vetula CH27 is a rare and unique succulent species known for its intriguing star-shaped flowers and fleshy, angular stems. Native to the arid regions of Southern Africa, this clump-forming succulent features four-angled, green stems that may develop soft hairs. The CH27 collection number refers to a specific location or variety that collectors prize. Its standout feature is its large, star-shaped flowers, typically brownish-purple or yellow, often with intricate patterns. Like other Stapelia species, the flowers emit a carrion-like odor to attract pollinating flies, giving it the common name Carrion Flower. Growing Stapelia vetula CH27 from seeds can be challenging but rewarding as the plant matures into a beautiful and exotic addition to any collection.
