Description:
It is a rare succulent plant that forms a caudex. In Chinese it is called 臭 琉 桑 "Smelly mulberry". Its green and erect conical stem can branch out. From the apex of the branches the lanceolate bright green leaves with evident veins arise. In spring, very particular inflorescences are born from the long peduncle, which are green, gray and orange in color. Along the edges of the inflorescence you can see long ''tentacles'' that make this plant unique and particular.

Plant care:
They grow well in dimness but require a lot of undirected light.
It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 15 °C, for this reason it is recommended to shelter it during the winter period.
Water moderately, only when the soil is completely dry. It is enough to water it once a week in spring and summer, reduce watering to once every two months in autumn and to suspend it completely in winter.
The best soil is a well draining one, for example formed by a mix of peat and pumice so that water does not stagnate.
They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
