The Stapelia Gigantea, also called the Starfish Flower, is native to Cape Provinces. It is a dwarf succulent belonging to the Asclepiadaceae botanical family. The plant forms clumps and has erect, cylindrical, fleshy, green stems. The stems have four ribs, made of rounded hooked tubercles. The color of the stem can change from green to reddish/purple, depending on temperatures and sun exposure. This plant produces blooms in the summer. They form at the base of the plant. The flowers are starfish-shaped, flat, pale greenish brown outside, width up to 5-1/2 inches in diameter. The flowers give off an unpleasant smell that is similar to the smell of decomposition of a carcass, but which is useful for attracting flies and promoting pollination.
This is a slow growing plant. It likes full sun exposure, but is recommended to avoid direct sunlight during the hottest months. it needs to be placed indoors during the colder months. Needs porous soil.
