What a fascinating plant. Smile

Does it come in other colours as well?

I have heard about the Stapelia, but they only grow in Namaqualand in SOuth Africa. THat area is a bit too far for me to travel (That is is the Northen Cape and I am in Cape Town which is in the Western Cape, a long way south from there.)

Thanks for sharing this fascinating flower pictures with us.

It may stink, but I like it and want one Exclamation

It is very unusual looking, or at least from what I can see. Guess there is no particular place to look for it...other than a nursery. I know if I went to WalMart and ask for it by name, the sales person would probably just stare at me Exclamation

A nursery would know it by name, or at least I hope so. Thanks for inquiring about your plant and for the picture posting.
