Plant Description
Larryleachia cactiformis (syn Trichocaulon cactiforme) for sale in two different size. The sculptural Larryleachia cactiformis is a rare succulent admired for its bizarre, almost alien form. This stem-only plant mimics a miniature cactus but belongs to the milkweed family. Its surface features a dense pattern of tubercled ridges, giving it a chunky, lobed appearance. The green to grayish-brown skin is often speckled or wrinkled, resembling aged stone. It makes a striking display piece for collectors who seek uncommon and compact desert flora.
Unlike many succulents, Larryleachia cactiformis grows slowly and stays low, rarely exceeding 10 cm in height. It has no leaves or spines, yet its warty, multi-angled texture creates depth and shadow. During bloom, it produces small, star-shaped flowers, often maroon or purple with a slightly waxy surface. These blooms arise unpredictably and can add a splash of contrast against its rugged base. This plant thrives in pots and rock gardens with excellent drainage.
• Grows in a sculptural, cactus-like form without spines or leaves
• Produces small, purple to maroon star-shaped flowers
• Rare and slow-growing, ideal for collectors and minimalists
• Prefers dry, warm conditions and minimal handling
• Perfect for rocky arrangements or arid-themed displays
Finally, Larryleachia cactiformis demands attention without trying too hard. Its raw, textured form and earthy tones bring a rugged, fossil-like charm to any collection. Compact, curious, and full of character, it’s a rare jewel for any succulent lover.
