Quaqua mammillaris
Aroena - synonym: Boucerosia mammillaris, Stapelia mammillaris
Description
Quaqua mammillaris is a distinctive succulent plant, recognized for its unusual appearance and unique flower structure. It forms clumps of erect, cylindrical stems that are typically a greenish-gray color. The stems are covered with small, pointed tubercles, giving it a somewhat bumpy texture. It produces unique, star-shaped flowers that often have a strong, sometimes unpleasant odor. It thrives in well-draining, gritty soil and prefers full sun to partial shade. Water sparingly and avoid overwatering, which can lead to root rot. Provide good air circulation and ensure the soil dries out between waterings.
