Default Stapelia leendertziae
Have had this plant for a long time very slow grower, but flowers every year. Smell of rotten meat, the neat thing is when flies are inside tube of flower it sounds like a buzzing bell, kinda soothing.

The color reminds me a lot of my Huernia Schneideriana. I love the deep purple/reds! The blooms look like they're textured, are they?

Yes they do have a feeling of ruff leather.
