It's a tender plant that is best grown indoors. Native to Kenya and South Africa. Apocynaceae 852337   Ceropegia fusca Variegated Variegated Stick Ceropegia $74.95   New! This very rare collector's plant has longitudinal stripes of green and yellow variegation running along its upright jointed cylindrical stems. This is a native of the Canary Islands, where its non-variegated form grows in a shrubby manner up to 5 feet high in full hot sun with stems having a waxy white exterior. The small insignificant leaves are usually dropped in hot, dry conditions. From spring to summer it blooms with tube-shaped, lantern-like reddish brown flowers. It makes a nice ornamental plant for the dry, drought tolerant garden. Give it good drainage and minimum water in the winter. It is usually recommended that it requires hot conditions and as much sun as possible to grow well. However, this variegated form might need a bit of sun protection and is probably more suitable as a potted plant. USDA zones 9 - 11. Plants are sold in 3 inch pots (the image shows a typical plant on the right side). Apocynaceae 90638   Ceropegia sandersonii Parachute or Umbrella Plant $9.95   The common name of this small succulent vine refers to its flowers that are shaped somewhat like parachutes or umbrellas. The flowers are even more unusual in that they give off a scent to trap flies. As the flies slide down the flower tube to the base they get covered in pollen. The flies are released later, as the flower withers, to pollinate other parachute flowers. It's fairly easy to grow as a basket plant or in a dry terrarium in well-drained soil and bright light (not direct sunlight). Native to Mozambique, South Africa, and Swaziland. (B,T) Apocynaceae      Resized image from Wikimedia Commons: Wouter Hagens, Ceropegia sandersonii A, CC BY-SA 3.0 90660   Cynanchum insigne (Syn.: Sarcostemma insigne), Green Spaghetti Plant $19.95   This is a rare leafless succulent plant from Madagascar with green trailing cylindrical stems, resembling a Rhipsalis. Scented flowers appear along the stems that are pale white with red stripes, much like the veins in a bloodshot eye. It's an ideal plant for a hanging basket.

Apocynaceae 67514   Dischidia ovata $19.95   Small coppery red leaves, lighter veins, twining stems. 4 inch Pot Apocynaceae 90589   Dischidia sp. Geri Apple Leaf $29.95   This Hoya relative has succulent, soft green, 1 inch rounded leaves turning grayish with age with new foliage emerging pinkish in color. Has ivory white flowers. Easy. Outdoors provide it with filtered light, indoors a bright area. Good drainage is essential. With its cascading form, it makes an easy to grow hanging basket. Can also be used in a large terrarium. This unidentified Dischidia was named after Geri Ham Young, a succulent collector in Honolulu, by Hoya specialist Ted Green of Hawaii. It could be related to Dischidia oiantha, whose leaves are more elongated. We have seen this plant sold elsewhere, likely in error, as the species Dischidia oiantha and as Dischidia milnei. USDA Zones 9b - 11. Apocynaceae 90351   Dischidia sp. White Diamond $29.95   A variegated hoya relative with small diamond-shaped leaves that are greyish green with a creamy white margin. Tiny white flowers. Makes a beautiful hanging basket plant. Sometimes, sold as a novelty hanging plant in a seashell. Widely grown in S.E. Asia incorrectly as Dischidia oiantha. USDA Zones 10 - 11. Apocynaceae 90673   Fockea edulis Hottentot Bread $12.95   This collector's plant is a semi-decidous succulent perennial grown for its swollen caudiciform base. It has thin, twining stems growing up to 3 feet with 1/2 to 1 inch long gray-green oval leaves and tiny lightly scented starfish-shaped, lime green flowers. It is dioecious with male and female flowers on separate plants. In nature, the tuberous caudex grows underground reaching a size up to 2 feet in diameter. Growers leave the young plants with this base buried in the pot until the desired size is reached. It's then repotted with the caudex above ground creating the unique bonsai look. To protect this base from sunburn grow the plant in light shade. Train the twining stems on a framework or keep trimmed to keep them from growing over nearby plants. Plant in a fast-draining cactus mix and water regularly from spring to fall, then reduce watering in winter during dormancy to prevent rotting. Though the name 'edulis' indicates the plant is edible, it requires an elaborate process to rid the tuber of its toxicity. This endangered species, native to South Africa and Namibia, can withstand a light frost as low as 28F for short periods. USDA zones 9b - 11.
