Orbea Speciosa

 

Starfish flower cactus originally come from Africa. Evolving to deal with a lack of pollinating insects in the desert/hot climates, the starfish flower specifically emits a stronger smell in search of the only pollinator who can stay alive in the same climate, the fly. Many species do not emit a smell so strong it is intolerable or so offensive the plant is not manageable for the average hobbyist. Stapelia Gigantea, perhaps due to its large size, can emit a strong enough smell that you might think twice about growing it in walkways. 

 

Metal tags are specifically from Amekron IMPRESS-O-TAG aluminum plant label tags. They are durable, lasting and simple to use. You can imprint them with a regular pen, and then trace the words with sharpie. The sharpie will fade in the sun over time but you will not lose the impression of what you have written. Our metal tags come with our name on the back of the tag and the variety you have ordered if you use premade tags by us. We stand by our cuttings and want our name to continue to be along side your plants when they start fruiting.
