Succulent Asclepiads
Succulent Asclepiads are a diverse group of specialized succulents within the Apocynaceae family, including genera such as Huernia, Stapelia, Orbea, Duvalia, and Caralluma. Characterized by fleshy, often angular or toothed stems, these plants are especially prized for their unusual star-shaped flowers, intricate patterns, and remarkable pollination adaptations. Native primarily to arid regions of Africa and Arabia, they thrive in warm conditions with excellent drainage and are fascinating additions to specialist succulent collections.
