Stapelia hirsuta

[estación seca]

If you're lucky it will give you seed horns. Like other milkweeds the seeds have parachutes. You need to take them as the horns open or they will blow away. They are very easy from seed and grow rapidly.

At one time there was information about their pollination on a page by the late Jerry Barad. He created many hybrids. Milkweeds trap insects' limbs and antennae when they visit. As the insects struggles to free itself it picks up a pollinium, or pollinates the flower.
