Huernia pillansii

Succulent generally consisting of several stems that do not exceed a few centimeters in height, rather slender and cylindrical, equipped with pointed and prominent tubercles, which end in a sort of extravagant leaves: these are soft whitish bristles, which even reach a centimeter in length and give the plant an apparently thorny appearance! The real strong point of Huernia pillansi are undoubtedly the peculiar five-pointed flowers, of a beautiful yellow or velvety brownish, enriched with irregular red streaks or dots, which bloom between summer and autumn, amplifying the elegance of this spectacular plant!
