One of the most interesting of our succulents, the Stapelia gigantea gets it's common name "Carrion Flower" from the stench of the large yellow flower - it smells like rotting meat. These plants use flies to pollinate them so if you see a swarm of flies, they are doing their work! Super cool to watch it bloom and the smell does go away pretty quickly after it blooms and just leaves you wondering how on earth this evolved from the cactus-looking plant. Technically not a cactus and part of the milkweed family. This set of plants will likely have blooms in the spring with the warmth and lighting required of most blooming cactuses.
Available in the following packaging based on your preference:
- Nursery Pot - Standard 4-inch planter pot that can be placed inside a larger pot or left as is until it outgrows it.
- Marie Planter - This plant comes packaged in a 4-inch terracotta planter pot ready for your home or office space with a matching tray to catch drips when watered.
If your plant needs added humidity our Plant Mister would make a perfect addition to your plant shelf for both function and beauty.
