HERE IS THE POD

Have you or any one here grown plants successfully from the seeds? Why not catch the seeds and try?

Cal, great to see you have seed. Sorry to tell you, it isn't H.zebrina... with or without the quotes.

Hi Paula
I did collect the seeds. Since this is the first time I have had a pod, I am excited to see what becomes of them! I will keep you posted!

Howard...I wondered about that pod because my huernia zebrina never developed one. What is the plant Cal has???

Not absolutely certain. looks like it is of the genus Orbea, possibly Orbea verrucosa v.fucosa. The reason for this genus is because the flower has has a central "orbit"

Boy do I wish my would form a seed pod. I have grown them from seed several times. And they cross with almost all stapidias. Mine is very simular to yours except being darker. It was supose to be on the lighter side. Clsoer to Orbea then Huernia. Mine is Duvalia sulcata ssp. Seminude. I love the look of the stems. Light green with deep red lines thou out it. It had a bloom on it when I purchased it and now again. I hit the jack pot on this one.

I am pretty sure that's a orbea variegata unless their flowers are extremely similar. I am lucky enough to have a pod developing just now. Seems worthwhile to try to grow something from it!

I would agree, O. variegata is a better choice than my pick of Orbea verrucosa.

Stush,
Very pretty..... now I must go hunting..LOL. Thank you Howard for responding.

Very nice plants, Calmom, Howard & Stush!

Yes, CalMom, yours is Orbea variegata. Great to see the pod & seeds too!

Haven't seen a Duvalia sulcata ssp. seminuda in a while, Stush. Thanks for that!

Lots of Life Savers, Howard...eye candy for sure! :P
