This small succulent was first found by Petr Pavelka, near Bitterfontein (South Africa). It is a stemless plant, formed by two oval and fleshy leaves of a gray-green color. During the vegetative period from the center of the plant a beautiful flower is born, usually of a white or yellow color, which is larger than the body of the plant. When the flower blossoms, two new leaves appear and the old leaves dry up and disappear completely.
