Dear Chris,. Was this the first one we found or one of the five we found under one bush ? You're doing better than me, I don't have any buds on the things we...
Good evening everyone, This is Huernia barbata, a David Cumming collection, DMC11539, from halfway between Hunt's Drift and Trefu, 10 km. south of Committies...
Can someone tell me why my stapeliad stems sometimes die back from the top? It's a drying up, not a rotting and usually stops after 1/2-1 inch (although for...

Good evening everyone, This is Echidnopsis cereiformis from Ethiopia and Sudan, and the type species of my second favourite genus, after Huernias. This is a...
Nice John, love the clear yellow color--just out of curiosity, how big are your cereiformis flowers and how floriferous do the plants tend to be? Carlo A....
Dear Carlo, The flowers are about 0.375" (9.5mm.) across the lobes. The plant tends to flower on and off right through what we laughingly call summer...

Good evening everyone, This is the plant known in nurseries as Huernia species aff. laevis, Haraz (or Harras). It is certainly nothing like Huernia laevis...
Dear John, I have also this specimen and it is probably a hybrid. It was sold by Uhlig some years ago. Regards, Iztok ... From: Stapeliad@yahoogroups.com...
Dear Iztok and Ryan, Many thanks for your replies, I am also inclined to the idea of a hybrid and indeed Chris (Moore) on his website suggests a hybrid with...
Dear John, we noticed this species - I think 2 years ago - in this forum. And there is still no solution of the problem. I bought two different clones from...
Hi Friederike, John and all others, This is a very interesting discussion, because I have this plant too (bought to Uhlig, too) and now I am very curious to...
Good day, Here is a slightly unusual Orbea verrucosa (that I found at a nursery last year hidden away behind a lot of Euphorbias). It decided that the best...

Hello, Some of the previous years growth (which was badly sunburned as this was my first stapeliad) is now getting very hard and dry and turning yellow/orange....
Good evening all, It seems to run in the family... The same Orbea verrucosa that gave me a few 6 petal flowers a few weeks ago, now has a 7 petal flower. There...
