Strange succulent plant
If anyone can ID this for me please contact me! The growth is four-angled, spineless. The flower bud is HUGE. Will post another photo when it blooms. I've been waiting patiently....
YES I do know, it's a Carrion Flower - and your bloom will stink ;-)
ReplyDeleteI have one, also, take extra care with it because it is not easily found and takes quite awhile to mature to bloom.
ReplyDeleteI have a video of flies working all over mine, on my patio last summer.
that rotten meat odor truly attracts them, as well as my Jack Russell :-)
If any leaves fall off, save them and re-root.
you can see us at Oddly Enough Antiques on FaceBook
(but my Carrion orchid plant is not for sale)
Stapelia Gigantea
